Hi everyone.    I was offered a job per diem at 7.5 cents a line.  I am an acute-care with 29 years experience.   I think this is entirely too low.  People said that would consider increasing to 8 cents per line after a couple of weeks, but there is no guarantee.  My hubby went through the roof when he heard how much they wanted to pay me. 

I have a job right now that does not pay for spaces, rate is decent though 10 cents to 10.5 centers with no Sat work unless there is OT.    I have another job offer where I have been hired to start in Dec which pay will be 9 to 9.5 cents working Tuesday-Sat first shift and now this per diem job.  Per Diem job really offered me this job full-time, they have PT too but benefits were better at the job starting in Dec.  I do feel I am worth more and I just wanted to use them PT just for pocket money.  I told them I would try it for 2 weeks, and she said lots of MTs do that and then they go FT.  They do pay weekly too.   I am torn if I should even take this job at 7.5 as there is no guarantee they will give me more money.   I would just have to trust them and if they do not I know what to do.  Any advice.  I am supposed to train today.  I also have to decide if I want to stay where I am at 10 cents a line or go to a job that pays 9 cents a line with spaces counted and they do not care how long you work.  My 10 cents a line job now does not let you go past 40 hours.  Decisions, decisions.
