Hi, I think an OR nurse would earn much more.
Surgical techs by me start at something like $11-$12 an hour. (I may be confusing scrub techs with surgical techs- is that the same thing?)
Not great, unless you're used to earning much less.
Minimum wage is about to hit $7.50, though, so $11 is vastly taking advantage of people, IMO.
