Taking a Pay Cut

I currently work in an office setting in the Automotive industry. I've been on the Nursing waitlist for 3 years now and my number will be called soon! YAY! I've been trying to get my foot in the door and finally was offered a position in the OR at a major hospital in my area. I make good money now... almost $17/hr and i know moving into another field would be a paycut, however the offer they came back with was $10/hr. I was hoping for $12. I'm a single mother... I can't afford to live off $10/hr. :crying2: I weighed the pros and cons and honestly the only con is the money! I am miserable at my current job and the new position would earn me so much experience and learning to help with my future as a nurse. What should I do?

I asked if the pay was negotionable and the HR lady is "looking" into it. :o

I would keep making extra money before school to pay your bills and try to sock some away for when you are in NS. Beign a CNA is nice for the experience but it isn't mandatory to your success as a nurse. Take the money and get your education.
