Gotta love the work drama

I know I know, its not another here we go again with toms work rants

Had a rather busy night last night, no real cool stories, but did have to treat a working girl

Anyway, I have one decent nurse, and one POS nurse. Now the decent nurse was a little off his game due to something that occured earlier in his shift, which was entireley understandable, and he still did a good job. Now the other one was hardly here (which isnt always a bad thing except for when work has to be done) and he was getting annoyed, as was i since there was stuff to be done.

The capper was she took a 3 hr break. on the overnights the nurses kind of have an agreement that they will take 2 hr breaks and cover each other. Now theres a few that abuse the privilige and their colleagues will complain but no one actualy does anything about it. It doesnt help that supervision in nursing here is a joke and its all part of what click youre in it seems.

So I took the initiatvae and gave our director a heads up on this since I had some other issues that needed to be adressed, so hopefully this acomplishes something. Our director was actualy glad I e-mailed him because they want to know whats going on, and now I am a hero among the techs and some of the nurses for actualy saying something and calling out the people in charge.

Must be a union thing where none of them will actualy step up and do anything
