What I don't like is the mind games that are played. A good example is I have been a nurse for 8 years and never called out on a weekend I was suppose to work. I worked every other weekend for 8 years and got very sick and called out the whole weekend. The hospital made a new rule about a year before this trying to get people who called out sick to "make up" the weekend they called out. For example, I could work a Friday the next week and Saturday a few weeks later. I worked with people who called out all the time, that is why they made this rule. Well, a year goes by and my manager never enforced the rule. Then, I get sick and she tries to get me to make up my weekend. I told her I had a Dr.'s note and it did not matter. I reminder her of the 4 nurses who had called out the past 6 months and she never made them make their weekends up. My attitude was well, do what you need to do, and I will do what I need to do. And I did. I quit and got a better job. What happens if you have a baby? Do you make up the days you missed? Or, if you have surgery? My manager did not know what to say. There was no difference between what I had and somebody else having a baby. What do you think about the above? Does your hospitals have these stupid rules? I hate when hospitals treat the staff like a peice of meat. Thanks for listening.
