    I don't beleive there is a surplus of nurses in Houston though there may have been a surplus of hospital beds. You will almost certainly find something.

            You only say that because you're afraid of new things.

                THANKS TO ALL OF YOU FOR THE SUPPORT!!!

                Well, I got my monthly state nursing news letter today and on the front page " what happened to the nursing shortage? "

                SH!IT!!!! I just sat here typing for an hour tell my problems then my laptop keys erased all but what is at the top.

                Oh well. let me start over.
                They have imported so many overseas nurses that the ratio 10 years ago has gone from 10 jobs per nurse to 20 nurses per job.
                The imorted nurses are more educated with BA and masters. They are under contract so they are paid less than the averge rate of pay.Plus the facilitys that hire them get kick backs from the government.
                So, why would a employer pay me $32 per hour when they can pay a over educated nurse $18 to @20 per hour.
                The only way I can compete is to go back to school.
                Sh!t! I'm 47 years old and too damn lazy to want to go back to school.
                Nursing is all I know.

                Hell, I had a lot more than this the first time but now I'm tired of typing.
                I have a job intervew tommorow at a damn nursing home.
                I going to ask to start at $26 perhr. I will let you know what they will pay.
                thats another thing, I use to be able to tell them how much I wanted rper hour because I have 21 years experince as a nurse, now they tell you what they will pay.
                Negotians are a thing of the past.


                Thanks again!

                your friend

                William

                      Do not kill yourself. If your depression turns out to be chronic, and lasts, then think about getting counseling and even anti-depressants.

                          and life is not work.
                          “It is no use trying to 'see through' first principles. If you see through everything, then everything is transparent. But a wholly transparent world is an invisible world. To 'see through' all things is the same as not to see.”

                              Having been laid off twice in three years I can certainly sympathize. Best of Luck Doc.
