Continuing with the discussion.
REad the following:
**NEW YORK (CNN/Money) - Two years ago, the U.S. economy was just entering its third -- and probably last -- quarter of recession, and the unemployment rate was just beginning to climb.
Two years later, the jobless rate is still climbing.*
Maybe that's why sales EVERYWHERE is slow. I live in Chicago and there are SALE signs at some of the most chi-chi shops; even the Disney store had 75% off 'selected' items.

"Actually there is an acute nursing short. The last time this happened we recruited nurses from the Philippines(1950's onward). The current enrollment in US Nursing Schools is not sufficient to fill the demand as many nurses either leave the field from burnout or are retiring. California hospitals currently are recruiting out of state and flying in "travelers"."
Many medical jobs are Part time -- PART TIME! If the nurse/practitioner works FULL TIME they are given top dollar, and most hospitals don't want to pay benes & top wages, so they hire PART TIMERS. Look at the want ads. PART TIME!
