[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nurses probably have similar needle stick and disease transmission, but usually the patients are not adversarial (maybe that is wishful thinking). Obv nurses should be paid better too. [/quote]

A friend’s daughter is a flight nurse in a helicopter. She makes over $120,000 and only works 8 days a month. Every overtime shift she picks up is a guaranteed $2,000+.

Yea flight nurses are a highly specialized, small subset of nurses. Now do medsurg RNs in suburbia[/quote]

Isn’t that a choice a person makes?[/quote]

You are saying government jobs are the only good choices so a successful economy and country is one where everyone works for the government? No one should fo private sector because most won't make as much and won't get pensions? You really want us to go down a road where government jobs are the only good job options for most middle/lower class Americans???? [/quote]

The post you referenced above was about a person working in a particular type of nursing. They could have chosen a different nursing job, or could work towards a higher paying nursing job. That was the point.[/quote]

The point is that cop salaries are high enough and that the tax funded portion of their retirement is no longer necessary

But they make less than a garbage man in a poor town.

Obviously people who allocate state and local funds feel differently than you. They seem to appreciate the effort and sacrifice of fire and police personnel.[/quote]
