Im a registered nurse at a private hospital. I get base rate $24.59.. plus a few more dollars if i do evening shifts....more for weekends etc etc.

Can kill your social life! And kill you eventually with burn out stress etc. But its rewarding when you get those grateful patients.

Hate the days when patients expect that they have their own personal nurse and they should be attended to as soon as their finger lifts from teh call button....regardless of whether you are busy attending to someone else.

Working with make-up full time for a gap year with an expensive cosmetics company... = 38 hour weeks, $15 an hour to start with and free makeup :D

It's soooo much better than slaveways (safeway). Seriously, if you have a checkout chick job, there is so much better out there.

$30/hr .. i doubt that.

25% loading on sat means you have a regular rate of $24 .. which I highly doubt for a 17 yr old.
