  1. Fired Due to Not Being Able to Get to Work

    Studentworker posted a topic in General Nursing

    Hi everyone. I joined this page to ask this specific question. I used to be a PCA, and am currently a college student. During my winter break, I was home and there was a snow storm that made...

  2. Fired Due to Not Being Able to Get to Work

    Studentworker replied to Studentworker's topic in General Nursing

    Again, I didn't "not attempt to get to work". Feel free to read other comments or the original post for reference. Nor did I say it was anyone's problem, I am capable of accepting that things happen...

  3. Fired Due to Not Being Able to Get to Work

    Studentworker replied to Studentworker's topic in General Nursing

    I am not sure where I would go and safely stay before the storm if there isn't somewhere for me to go? I did not slam coworkers for not taking a shift. I didn't expect anyone to unless they were...

    Studentworker replied to Studentworker's topic in General Nursing

    I actually do babysit when I can! Usually weekends and a weeknight here and there when I have the time. Since it's usually just date nights or similar things it makes me flexible and good, easy money....

  5. Fired Due to Not Being Able to Get to Work

    Studentworker replied to Studentworker's topic in General Nursing

    If something had happened to me and I had to go to a hospital somehow, I don't think any nurse would be telling me that I should've made it anyway. That is far from the compassionate personality...

  6. Fired Due to Not Being Able to Get to Work

    Studentworker replied to Studentworker's topic in General Nursing

    That is absolutely bonkers.. I am not a Navy Seal. I do not think $25 is worth walking that far in that type of weather, and I don't believe most commenters on this website would walk for 5 hours in...

  7. Fired Due to Not Being Able to Get to Work

    Studentworker replied to Studentworker's topic in General Nursing

    Luckily I don't plan on living anywhere with snow in the future; it's just not something I can control at this point in my life. When I begin an actual career and have real hours and pay, obviously a...

  8. Fired Due to Not Being Able to Get to Work

    Studentworker replied to Studentworker's topic in General Nursing

    You are suggesting that I walk 15 miles in the dark in a snow storm? When there are people driving that could very easily hit me if they lose control of their car

  9. Fired Due to Not Being Able to Get to Work

    Studentworker replied to Studentworker's topic in General Nursing

    I don't understand how those are simply just excuses. All I did was explain and answer questions that were asked.. The car is safe when not attempting to drive in a foot of snow. I don't drive when...

  10. Fired Due to Not Being Able to Get to Work

    Studentworker replied to Studentworker's topic in General Nursing

    Okay, thank you. This was the discussion I was trying to have. I've never had to do that before, and so I had no idea what to say and thought advance notice was more helpful. Essentially what I said...

  11. Fired Due to Not Being Able to Get to Work

    Studentworker replied to Studentworker's topic in General Nursing

    My parents do pay for the insurance which I am lucky for, but I do pay for my gas (which is why my car takes me to school and back and that's about it). No, there is no public transportation, I live...

  12. Fired Due to Not Being Able to Get to Work

    Studentworker replied to Studentworker's topic in General Nursing

    I really just wanted to know if there was anything else I could have said or done, for example calling in sick etc rather than trying to give advanced notice. Getting new tires, etc. wasn't something...

  13. Fired Due to Not Being Able to Get to Work

    Studentworker replied to Studentworker's topic in General Nursing

    I didn't purchase my car, it was given to me by a relative, which was quite lucky since my parents weren't able to get me one. Obviously at 17 and needing transportation to get to your waitressing...

  14. Fired Due to Not Being Able to Get to Work

    Studentworker replied to Studentworker's topic in General Nursing

    I understand that people on here care about the well-being of others. Some commenters have said to get a new car. Unfortunately I cannot afford tires, even used ones. I wish I could obviously, that...

    Studentworker replied to Studentworker's topic in General Nursing

    I try to always be very honest about everything; I thought that being honest would be better than lying, but I suppose maybe bending the truth is the better option

  16. Fired Due to Not Being Able to Get to Work

    Studentworker replied to Studentworker's topic in General Nursing

    Also, if it were work in a hospital I would have the option to come in early. However, it was an apartment. It's not my job to come in 24 hours earlier while someone else is on the

  17. Fired Due to Not Being Able to Get to Work

    Studentworker replied to Studentworker's topic in General Nursing

    I did not post this to get hammered about my car. If you did not read correctly I am 20 years old and an undergrad. I work 9 hours a week at my other job and pay for other bills. My parents do not pay...
