Starting Salary

I don't know what they are paying right now, but I started out at $20/hr in TN 2 years ago, with a $1/hr bedside diff. I would have made total $24.50/hr had I chosen nights.

Thankfully I do not live in CA due to the high cost of living I hear about all the time. I'm actually in St. Louis. I figured starting salary would be similar to Chicago and yes, I am a nursing student. The starting pay is important to me but it is also more than I was making when I didn't have a job due to my previous employer laying me off after 8 long years. I'm excited about my new journey.
