Overnight peoples (aka. Who's up?)

[Corey]

The fucking inservice I went to was a joke. It takes me about half an hour to get to work, so it's a bit of an annoyance to have to go in when I'm not working a full shift, but this was a bitch.

Here's the entirety of my inservice, which I drove half an hour to get to:

Me: Hey Brenda, I'm here for the inservice
Brenda: You're here a little early, but that's good, we can get this outta the way
Me: Sounds good, so what's the deal?
Brenda: Ok, when stroke patients come in, they go to one of two places. 6 North or ICU.
Me: Like we've been doing, gotcha. What else?
Brenda: That's it. Oh, and attach a face sheet to the pink stroke paper and put it in the folder.
Me: And?
Brenda: That's all. Now go sign the sign in sheet and you're free to go.

And that was it. All of it. Not even 1 minute. I mean it's cool that it wasn't excessively long, but fucking hell, half an hour drive and another half hour back for a 1 minute inservice fucking sucks.

You bitch about as much as the person in your avatar does













Umm....I'd be pissed, personally. That's fucking stupid! They could have just had you come in a few minutes before shit and told you that.

If only I got paid as much.

It's kind of typical. All the inservices, meetings, and other general nonsense is scheduled during the week between 7 and 9. That's great if you're day shift, and kind of ok if you're getting off at 7. But if you're weekends or mid days, you're all kinds of fucked. Blah.

Same at my job. Every damn meeting they want to have is right in the middle of my normal sleep pattern. It's usually around 1 or so and unless I can manage to go to bed as soon as I get home, there's no way in hell I'm waking up for it. Of course, it works great for the other 2 shifts. I don't go even try to go to them anymore. I just get with the GM a few minutes before work now. I had to kind of push for that though.

The meetings for registration are always the same. Fridays at 3 or 4pm. Doesn't matter about anything else, it's Friday at 3 or 4 pm. Is it because they're trying to give the night shift time to sleep and catch as much of the day shift as possible? No. It's so the managers buddies who get off at 5 can fuck off for an hour and not have to work and the manager can do the same. I stopped going to them back in August, even though they're "mandatory" There were three meetings in a row where I showed up only to be informed that the meeting had been canceled. Nobody could bother to call me to let me know before hand, just let me drive out there for no fucking good reason. So now I just assume that every registration meeting has been canceled and they forgot to inform me. I'll go to the general ER meetings just because they have yet to cancel on me and I gotta keep good with my new bosses, but registration can suck shit through a straw for all I care.

Dunno. I believe it's Telemetry and some Med/Surg at Aventura. 4th floor is our looney bin.
