I work for a level 2E nicu. myself and about 3 others are required to float to post partum but everyone else does not. I know it's not the end of the world but the favoritism at this job is affecting my mental health. I hate post partum. I've requested to just work nicu like everyone else and my boss said nope it's never going to change. so I will get kicked out of my nursery in the middle of 3 12 hour shifts so someone who "doesn't do post partum" can take my spot. I'm just at the point where I'm going to give up and find another job. am I just being petty?

Well crap. I didn't know I was that responsible. That makes it worse. I'm trained nicu I don't even do adults let some ICU or er level patients

I should also say we sit for 12 hours, no pee break, no lunch breaks because they are too busy ☹

So, our unit decided that if we have low census they are floating us to be "sitters" elsewhere in the hospital. AND apparently we can't refuse. I personally would rather be called off then go sit somewhere. What are your thoughts? Am I just overreacting?
