    Nurses selling at work?

    Ruas61 replied to Emergent's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    That's the thing, you likely can't voice your discomfort even to HR without it coming out as who 'tattled'. You know not every workplace is a big employer like a metro hospital. My place is roughly...

    Nurses selling at work?

    Nurses selling at work?

    Ruas61 replied to Emergent's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I find the life event thing not passed around fairly. Having baby showers for select staff members but not all across the board. I was annoyed at the 'pressure' by peers on managerial level to help...

    Nurses selling at work?

    Ruas61 replied to Emergent's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I am never rude. Why would I be? However, we have 100 plus employees with roughly 50% with school age kids. That opens up a potential floodgate. Buy from one and not the other? Supervisor selling...

    Nurses selling at work?

    Ruas61 replied to Emergent's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Our company has a no no policy. I do mind the school fund raisers. I don't like being put on the spot for expensive items that seem to be the norm. Not many selling the nominally priced candy bar much...

    Nurse Neglect/Abuse?

    Ruas61 replied to InsideWindow's topic in General Nursing

    The nurse was definitely rude. It'd be a long shot proving neglect or abuse but if you have it hot on your agenda, call the board. You could also discuss it with the office

    She can certainly have her say. No arguments there, I do however take her wording as a slap against a group. I see that perpetuating the very thing she is rallying
