  1. Is the pay really that bad??

    myty23 replied to myty23's topic in General Nursing

    Well, excuse me for offending you. But it kind of offends me when people complain about having to work an extra shift so that they can be comfortable enough to buy a fancy car, buy clothes, take...

  2. Is the pay really that bad??

    myty23 replied to myty23's topic in General Nursing

    So what would you be doing if you weren't a nurse? If 20-27 an hour is so bad try making 10-12 an hour and supporting your kids, even a shift or 2 of overtime doesn't get you enough to pay all of the...

    Sorry, you didn't have it in quotes so I thought that bolded portion was a part of your post that you wanted to point

    myty23 replied to myty23's topic in General Nursing

    Who are you talking to? Me? What kind of accurate information did I not post? I asked a question because being that I want to be a nurse, I wanted to make sure that the pay is what I've been thinking...

  5. Is the pay really that bad??

    myty23 replied to myty23's topic in General Nursing

    Genetics, I agree with you that people tend to make more money then add more bills to make up for it. That's exactly what I have done. Everytime I started making a little bit more money, I would add...

  6. How Do You Do it FINANCIALLY?? Nervous about entering Nursing School!

    myty23 replied to Sl1011's topic in General Nursing

    I am in the same situation as you are. My husbands income as a firefighter does not pay all of the bills, his bring home pay is about $1900/month and we also pay a mortgage of about $1k a month along...

  7. Is the pay really that bad??

    myty23 replied to myty23's topic in General Nursing

    I understand what you are saying, but I have to ask why you've stayed in the profession for 35 years if it's so bad? In all of the jobs I've had in the past 7 years they all pretty much have only...

  8. I am giving up

    myty23 replied to tryingtobecome's topic in General Nursing

    I agree with everyone else here. I am not a nurse yet, not even in the program yet. I also have had people try to discourage me about nursing. About a year ago is when I decided I wanted to be a nurse...

    myty23 replied to myty23's topic in General Nursing

    I definitely agree that nobody should go into it just for the money. If my heart wasn't in it, I wouldn't be pursuing it. I started out in college 6 years ago wanting be a nurse, but got caught up in...

  10. Work all night -School during the day, can it be done?

    myty23 replied to myty23's topic in General Nursing

    Thank you all for your replies. I'm so glad to hear that there are people that have made it work. But also sad that there are some that haven't. If I do end up working nights, I would probably only...

    Hi! I am currently taking my pre and co requisite courses for the nursing program and am hoping to be able to join the program by next fall with all of the other classes out of the way. I've been...
