Mar. 11th, 2026 09:13 amNews From Last Night.....
I had put my name down to get the night off tonight, like I have done several nights over time.
I am top of the seniority list on the night shift so if one is available, it should be mine.
The last time I got a night off because staffing was good was July 4th, 2019.
So imagine my SURPRISE when I got to work tonight and it said I got my EA, Excused Absence.
Okay, so of course there is a hitch.
They are no long allowed to give nursing assistants the whole 8 hours off at one time any more. So I only have the first 4 hours off.
And will probably get a call before 3 am telling me that I have to come back into work and finish the shift.
And of course it's suppose to snow tonight. Yippy........

It's not a show I necessarily go looking for, but I do love it when I hear/see it. :)

And how insulting that only the nursing assistants are so targeted. Patient care is patient freaking care. If they have to have such an asinine policy, then it should be for all direct patient care staff.
