I'm gathering that they mean people who complain incessantly, aren't real "team players," things like that.
What was said was, "We can afford to be choosy now." (Like we weren't before? :uhoh21: )
My concern comes in because it's not like we keep poor fits hanging around anyway. Those who don't really fit tend to weed themselves out. And we still have a 4% vacancy rate, so we're still not quite complete, either.
I've seen the vacancy rate for nurses ebb and flow over the years, but I've never worked in a place that had too much help.
Yeah, I suppose so, especially since this is an "at-will" state.
But curiously, I'm not.
They really should do their homework on the nursing shortage, because that's a fact that isn't going away anytime soon. But experienced nurses are going to retire or leave for less strenuous jobs, especially in the coming years.
It's still a seller's market, and I still have a brain attached to this warm body.

Well, we've been told that our hospital vacancy rate is less than 1/3 of the rest of the state. So we can begin to "weed out" less desirable employees.
What do you think?
