    Can they make me stay at the hospital without pay?

    True. I should have said I want it closer so I can have a day off without it injuring anyone or damaging anything. I just don't want to work.

    That's a very good question. I know that me have three teams that everyone has to sign up for. A- Before the storm. B- during the storm. C-after the storm. From what I am being told any hour we are...

    Dreaming about work?

    I get the alarms are going off all the time. I used to hear them everywhere as well. My family thought I was going crazy at one point because any time I heard some kind of beep I would automatically...
