Would Amercans take a job offer for $240,000/year now?
Despite the bad economy, there are certain USA employers in the energy and health sectors and nursing that are UNABLE to fill the job openings they need. So one group is offering $240,000 per year salary to any person they can find, even if they don't necessarily meet the training qualifications. Still, they are unable to get enough resumes to fill the spot. How likely would you apply for this kind of position? All you need is some degree from any university and some city planning experience. According to this article I just read. How likely would you apply? The job hours are like 9 to 5, Mon.-Friday? And it's a real struggle for these employers, they just CANNOT seem to fill their openings. If only there was more supply of applicants. A lot of these companies are in energy and health services All you need is a 2-year college degree, anything, why are people so afraid to apply

thats becasue there firing people they don't need, and closing departments that they do not deem important.

That is getting pretty close to the $250000 a year where the gov considers you rich and steals your money for the poor. With my wife working we would really get bent over on that deal. I am turning the job down as well!

Am I any less of a Doctor than his Mom
Am I any less of a Doctor than his Mom?
My fiance's Mother graduated from a 6-year Dental school in Bolivia, South America. She can't practice here, legally, until she does a 2-year rotation at a hospital. Anyway...her husband , my guy's father, calls her Doctorita (spanish) and everyone else sort of follows and calls her Doctor Maria. I graduated, recently, from a nursing program...went for 8 years, and I have my DNP degree...it's called a Doctor of Nursing. So people...congratulated me..and now lovingly call me Doctor Janet. I never required that they do so...nor did I make a big stink about it. They can call me nurse or whatever...even though, I can't lie..it feels kind of nice to be recognized for my hard work. My husband's mother doesn't really seem to think I qualify for that title. She hasn't said it outright..but subtly expresses it...it shows. Am I any less of a Doctor than her? I realize she went to Dental school for 6 years...but I went to school for 8 years here at a great USA institute..and I don't feel like I should feel lesser than any Dentist, Pharmacist, or anyone else with a PhD. Is it silly? Is she right? I never asked to be called a Doctor..but I don't understand why it bothers her so much. She went to Dental school for 6 years and I went to school up here for 8 years..and they were 8 hard, long, years. I don't ever ask people to call me a Doctor..but his Mom has always been competitive and I'm tired of being put down. I'm not going to say anything to her..just curious..that's all.

Realistically, you're NOT a doctor and instead you're a nurse (albeit a highspeed one). Frankly, trying to put yourself on par with your elders is pretty much a pointless endeavor. And, on top of all that, all of us "regular people" out there - that put in many hard years of our own getting college degrees, and nearly as much education (lifetime-wise as any of you docs) - find it a bit pompous that any of you insist on being address Doctor or Doctorita or whatever.
2 :
You are NOT a doctor. You have a doctorate. Those are NOT the same thing. And you cannot do the same advanced work a dentist or pharmacist does. With that said, Forget about her and get your congrats. Soon she will be racking in bigger bucks and doing more work anyway.

You aren't a medical doctor, and she actually is, and that's the difference. And doctors really do see a huge difference between 1) nurses and doctors and 2) doctorates and MDs/DDSs. As does society. In common language in the US, a "doctor" is only a medical doctor. You are a nurse practitioner, which is wonderful and should be celebrated, but you're not a doctor. Based on all that, you can see that no, she doesn't think you're a doctor and no, she probably doesn't really like you being called one and yes, she does feel you are less of a doctor than she is because yes, you are. Medically, you are not a doctor. Does that mean you shouldn't be proud? No. Does that mean that the work you do as an NP isn't valuable? Absolutely not! But medically, you can't be called a "doctor", and she knows that. Worse, she's a doctor, but can't practice, and that probably hurts her, so she's sensitive about all this.

Becoming a midwife
Becoming a midwife?
I would like to become a midwife, and I was wondering if someone could help me out with something. I want to start out being an LPN and then move on from there. My question is, do I have to get my Bachelor's in nursing before applying to a midwife program or will and Associate's degree (RN) work? Also, are there any websites that have information on obtaining this degree, and information about schools that offer it in the USA.

Midwife is a MSN degree. To safe time.... you should start with a BA in Nursing and move into MSN afterwards. If you choose the LPN (2yr program) route, you will need an additional 4 yrs for BA and 2yrs (MSN) to complete your degree. You can find all these information online via google...... just search for "Master of Science Nursing Midwifery".
2 :
if you want to be certified nurse midwife you will have to get a bachelors in nursing first. then you'll have to take masters program in midwifery.
