Obviously the most important story about Irma is that everyone ends up safe. Since we use this app to collaborate about professional services, I wrote the question with that tone in mind. No different than the articles you see about fantasy football owners wanting to know what to do now that the dolphins and buccaneers game is postponed due to Irma.

Perhaps risk management in some tiny immaterial way, but not really? Construction/cleanup/hardware tend to have a little boost as a result, but really it's just like breaking a window and replacing it - not really economic 'growth'.

How much are you getting paid? How many years of experience do you have? What specialty? What is the metropolitan city you work in?

I live in south Florida and work in the city of Fort Lauderdale. I work at a level one trauma/teach hospital (with 750ish beds). I have a total of 1 year of experience on a medical/surgical telemetry trauma floor. My base pay just went up to $28.65.

I know I do not have that much experience but I'm starting to feel like I should be getting paid more.
