A Day in the Life.........
Jun. 5th, 2018 09:55 amI was going to come here and say, I HATE my F'ing job.
But I don't really hate my job.
I HATE my F'ing employer, managers, and the vast majority of my coworkers. :(
I got to work last night and we had 16 patients and of course I was the only aide working.
The evening aides, as per usual, gave me a crap ass report of what was going on with the patients.
I covered one nurse's break, aka I sit in his room and watch his patient while he goes on break.
Then we got an admission and getting that patient settled ran into what was going to be my break time, so I skipped my break.
Then we were possibly getting another admission and the charge nurse was covering another nurse's break, so I went in and let her come out and I finished watching that patient.
Charge nurse tried to convince me to go on break and she would just tell the day aides that things didn't get done so I could have my break. YEAH RIGHT... That would go over like a lead balloon.
So I just started my morning work and it pretty much took the whole morning.
Then my manager comes in and tries really hard to tell me I couldn't have all the vacation time I requested because it might prevent another aide of having some time off because we are only allowed one aide off at a time. Please explain to me why we have two aides off at the same time right now?
So I told him I would just change my request.
And because I am just pissed about everything right now, I canceled all but two days of my request. So I went from requesting almost 4 weeks to just 2 days.
I know I am just spiting myself, but I am just so mad. :(
