I've been unemployed since October, it has sucked.

Job market for a job that will work around my college schedule is pretty tight around here, I looked hard until January and realized I had to do something else.

I took CNA classes, and I liked them so much I am thinking about changing my major to Nursing, a lot of the pre-reqs line up.

Anyways, I'm going to an interview at a Health and Rehab center, but she told me on the phone I have the job.

I know it aint much, but it feels good to be working again and it will pay the bills and then some.

And I get to work 11pm-7am so I can still go to school.

Nursing is a great field, my wife loves it.  Just be aware that the new grad job market is cutthroat right now.

Working those hours suck big time.  Be prepared to miss sleep.

Nursing will be a great field in the next 50 years. Better pay with more responsibility. If you enjoy it, I would recommend it as a career.

This. Nursing is great if you don't mind horrible hours sometimes doing horrible things. That's why a lot of nurses switch to private practice running offices instead.

Congrats, OP!  It feels nice not being a card-carrying member of the FSA...... unless you're a proud card-carrying member of the FSA.

I have a friend who is a nurse in AK who said I could find a job no prob, hopefully shes right.

AK would be much more my style than AR

Good luck!


I graduated with an AAS back in December and still haven't found a job in my field.


A security company did call me back, and I start my training next Monday. Starting pay for a security guard is .50/hr LESS than what I made as a security guard back in 1992...... Un-fucking-believable.
