FX of the "Giveadamn"

Published

My "giveadamn" is fractured. Broke. Not in working order. I am just so fustrated with it all!! I do love my job. I hate the old broken equipment, running out of necessary items, I hate losing my old people that I love. I also broke my giveadamn at home. I hate when I work a weekend, I come home, and gee- whats for supper. How the hell do I know? I have just spent the last 8 hours dealing with a dying resident, another one who cracked her head open when she landed on the floot, and dammit. What about me for a change?! Thanks.... I feel better now.. (not really, but it sounded good) Caregiver stress is getting to me. I dont like it. I want my giveadamn back. right now.

No, this is about word for word what she posted on my vent about poor work conditions and frustrations, being holier-than-thou attitude like she has no issues at her job.

Actually, your thread mentioned complaints about the patient population you work with, and that is what she responded to in your thread. This thread involves issues with the facility and home issues. Not really the same thing as complaining about the patients themselves, IMO.

The problem isn't the patient population themselves, but that I don't even have enough staff to deal with the issues that management knows the present, but thank you for judging as well. -sigh-

I'm sure you guys have never complained about a patient either, nope, NEVER. Super-nurses.
