disneydream06It always comes back to bite me in the ass...
I've had it with my fellow aides at work and decided to "work" just has hard as they do.
So last night I was told, by the two aides working the evening shift, the empty patient rooms were set up and ready.
Charge nurse told me we would be getting a patient at some point during the night, so I went to check on the room that it was going into.
BIG F'ING SURPRISE to room was not set and ready for a patient.
So I got it all ready for the admission.
In the process of quality checking the glucometers in all the rooms, I saw that the other empty rooms weren't ready for admits either.
I made the comment to a couple of nurses that wasn't going to fix any of the other empty rooms unless we were going to get admissions because I am tired of picking up after everybody else.
Flashforward to the end of the shift and manager comes up to me and tells me she wants to see me in her office after I punch out.
I go to her office and she proceeds to tell me, paraphrasing, how lousy of a employee I was.
She said nurses complained that I wasn't doing my job and being lazy about things. And tonight wasn't the first complaints she has gotten.
WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I will put my work ethic up against any aide on our station.
But when I take a stand I am the one that gets in trouble for it.
I finally ended the "conversation" by telling her, I guess I will be a good little aide do my work, and in my head, I will do everybody else's work too.
If she wants a cold worker drone, I will give her a cold worker drone.
They are making really easy to say I F'ing Quit.
If I didn't need the healthcare coverage, I would be really tempted.
On another note, my car went into the shop this morning to be repaird.
They say it will be at least 10 days, which means at least two weeks because the shop is not opened on Sat or Sun.
They gave me a lift over to Enterprise Rental, the company State Farm uses.
Signed all the paper work and they gave me a Chevy Equinox.
