I am currently working in an Occupational Health Clinic as a Nurse at a major Hospital and have been there nearly 1 year. I work Mon-Friday 8am-4pm, weekends & holidays off. I am pool perdiem status which means higher pay but no benefits, no PL time. The manager has been exceptional. My dilemma is I just got offered a part time w/benefits staff nurse position at the same hospital in a Pediatrics unit which has been a dream of mine to work with kids. I recently returned back to complete my BSN degree. I was not eligible for Tuition reimbursement being per diem so that was a bit of a bummer. My dilemma is should I stay where I am and keep the comfortable m-f 8-4, no benefits w/ higher pay or take the 12 hr part time w/ benefits job. I am soo conflicted, I don't know what I should do. What would you do?
