How do you communicate with work??

[Lpn1226]

Hi everyone!

Out of curiosity I was wondering how you communicate with the place you work?

with so much technology is there an app your work uses? Do they call or text? Do you just have written notes?

if they need a shift picked up how do they get ahold of you?

i worknin a nursing home and sometimes it's hard to communicate to everyone so just wondering if there was a better way! Thanks!

Good old fashioned cold calling - but if I see "unknown" or "private" number on my phone then I know it's work and I ain't answering!

My boss uses an app that text blasts us for call-offs requiring coverage or any other big issue. She's actually pretty funny. If we can do it she asks us to respond in various ways like "sure thing schmoopie". Hey if you're gonna get texted at 0430 might as well get a laugh out of it.

We use E-mail, texts, and phone calls, I ignore them all equally.
