Sick of nights, wknds and holidays

Published

:nurse: :nurse: I am sick of working all day then having to go out again at night for oncall SOC, working every major holiday and weekends are the worst! I work for a small outfit so there's 4 of us and we're sread pretty thin. Management does not do call except 1 wknigt per month. I love my job but hey I'm 45 yo and these all-nighters are killin me. How does your oncall work, anybody else out there getting weary?

There are other options out there - especially now. I have never worked nights or a holiday and I have been steadily employed since graduation 7 years ago. Make your own options - don't put up with stuff you don't like. Good luck to you!

Good for you! The skies the limit -- you have so many options. Take some time for yourself & explore the many opportunities out there. You have experience and, therefore, so much negotiating power. Enjoy your life ...

Thank you, thank you, for all the encouragement. I already have people asking for my services for their loved ones just by word of mouth. I haven't even decided on a name for my business yet. Wish me luck.
