I’m a German nurse interviewing for 9 to 5 office jobs.

If I get one of these jobs, I wanted not to completely leave nursing: my system pays better than other local hospitals and I don’t want my experience to go to waste. I wanted to work 2 to 4 weekend days per month, only second shift (shift starts at 12:30 and ends at 21:30), 'cause this is considered the easy shift and I want the extra money, but if I don’t like it, I can always change units or just work my office job.

I’m curious to hear answers from both sides of the Atlantic

    I work full time and sometimes get asked if I can do overtime.

    My salary covers my “expected working hours”. mon-fri, 9-5.

    Out side of working hours, the cost goes up. I am not giving up my personal time unless its for an increased rate to cover the loss of free time
