Management Timing Nurses Pee Breaks

This has to be illegal.

Doubtful. It isn't like they're watching you in the bathroom.

Two options:

Quit

Go on as if you never heard about this

Both wise in their own way!

At least the management is coming out on the unit to help cover the breaks...right??

They have to much time on their hands. Geez.

I'd make it super-awkward for them. "Yup, had the runs. See that quick walk? Sweat was totally rolling down my back...whew, thought I might not make it! Nope, not infectious. Bye now."

Stupid, intrusive management ideas call for creative solutions. Also, IBS does not play.

Don't put up with that crap!  I hope you are able to quit and get a better job ASAP!  I've heard of nurses being forced to wear trackers.  We are not robots.  We do not have to be treated like robots and micromanaged and disrespected.  There are better jobs out there.  No one deserves to be treated like this!

I agree, I went to per diem there and will leave altogether eventually. 

Is your resume up to date? It's downhill from there

OMG! Horrible, disgusting and insulting! 

Turn-about is far play. Go in to the facility on your day off and stand in the hallway on which their office(s) is located. Stand there with a notebook and pen in your hand, and every time someone comes in or goes out of their office, look at your watch and write their name and the time in your notebook. Observe where they are headed. Then note their return time. 

Wouldn't it be fun? ? You'd discombobulate them entirely! Of course, you better have a new job lined up first because I believe it's a possibility they might fire you...?...but it might be worth it!

If your manager is male, just use menstrual bleeding as an excuse. The conversation will end quickly! ?

Unfortuantely I am male and mgr is female. I suppose I could say I am bleeding out of my orifice. ? 

ERArmyRNND: Crohns? IBS? Could be legit! ?
