Greetings all: Interesting reading all these threads indicating our problems are not isolated to certain regions, but rather a national problem with poor staffing, over crowed ER's with non-emergant pts, being lead by incompentent managers, and low saleries.
Just wondering if we have other things in common, like fresh water fishing, or enjoying the outdoors, ie.,camping, hunting? Several of us are trying to get together this spring and fish after work. It's better than hitting the taverns, or strip clubs, as far as debriefing after a nasty shift. Post what you like to do as far as outdoor leisure. Maybe we can do some swap fishing trips, hunting trips, etc.
