hey, i graduated from bettendorf high school! now live in ga., where is this wonderful little town you live in? thanks

paula, that was exactly the type of info i wanted to get. thank you so much. sounds like you are unionized, we are not, but still should receive some sort of comp. thanks!

we were told that once we chose nursing as a career, we chose to work holidays, it was compared to being in the military. actually we were suggesting that any employee working the actual holiday should get time and 1/2, not just nursing. all employees get 6 holidays added into our PAL account, which includes vacations, sick days and holidays. it was also stated that the nursing staff was threatening to provide substandard care if we did not get holiday pay. i can tell you, that would never happen with the wonderful staff i work with, the only substandard would come from decreased staff working.

undefinedundefined does anyone working in a hospital setting get time and 1/2 for holidays? i don't just mean nurses. we asked that this benefit be considered, and the response was to compare nursing to joining the military, you should expect to work holidays. thanks for any input
