    The rumor mill has it that Clark is being investigated and has not been seen in a few days. When I had time, I checked my work email and found one from Mr. CEO sent Monday thanking me, saying that he...

    Disrespect & Profanity

    Davey Do replied to Davey Do's topic in General Nursing

    Davey Do replied to Davey Do's topic in General Nursing

    Thank you, TriciaJ, but I don't see my retirement starting as a direct result of this. However, I attempt to plan for the unexpected, so my termination has been considered. In fact, I came home on...

    And blame you, for your readiness to step away from the bedside, I do not, MrNurse(x2). I just have the time and the energy and the drive to take this sad environment on. It's a great situation to...
