They are begging me to switch shifts but they want me to take a pay cut

[Anonymous 1]

They have had a ton of problems filling positions. The ads are all there and have been for over a year.

I agree that it's a big difference in pay. But like I said, DAY shift was always the most sought after shift. So, I guess for those that did jump from NIGHT shift to DAY shift, it must have been worth it. But yes. I do understand that some might not be able to take that pay cut.

I would think that if OP's hospital posted a HELP WANTED AD, they'd have no hard time filling the DAY shift positions. At all.

Back in the day, people would jump at the opportunity to get the hell off of the night shift and on to the day shift.

And take a $6 an hour pay cut? That's a big shift differential for a lot of people. I can see why no one wants to do it. Out of curiosity, OP, what's the pay on days?
