I would like to take a survey of sorts. This week was my first working with a preceptor in MICU. My shift starts at 11:30 AM and ends at midnight. Without fail, every shift this week, the 11:30 PM to noon shift comes in late, sits in the break room till almost midnight and THEN they come out for report. They are supposed to be relieving me at 11:30 PM so I can be out the door at midnight.
I am a new grad and don't dare say anything yet, but I think this behaviour is rude and inconsiderate. Is this behavior common in the places you all work? I sure don't appreciate being kept waiting to give report so I can leave after 12 hours of work.
What's your take? Am I too sensitive? Should I not rock the boat yet?
