Why are Nurses so mean to each other?
Interesting...you think that was a nice thing to say to someone.

Why are Nurses so mean to each other?
I have no idea why but frankly I'm sick of it, I just got back from being gone for a couple of weeks and the first person I encountered said " Oh I thought you had been fired". Who says that, much less thinks that mind you this person doesn't know me nor has never worked with me. So the only thing I can guess is someone has a problem with me and rather than be an adult is going around behind my back saying I need to be fired.I have never been written up and I've been at this job for years so management does not have a problem with me. I don't abuse patients, nor am I lazy etc. so why do I need to be fired again? I know for a fact I am not widely liked, I keep to myself and do not discuss my private life at all. Just do my job, am polite when speaking on patient care/work related things but I will not sit there and be all " best friends" with you, laugh at your jokes that are not funny etc. That is my personality, I am polite but all that fake " friendship"...no you will not get that from me.Call me frigid, the only thing I care about is that management doesn't have a problem with me. I however did not deserve that comment and was amazed that someone could be that uncouth to even have that thought in their head.

Can I get some cool air?
So summer is here and for other people it means sunny days, relaxing by the pool and being able to finally wear that cute sun dress you got on sale last winter. I however dread summer because it means, clothes clinging to me, having to take possibly 4 showers a day and literally living a nightmare at work. I have a/c on at home, in my car, but step into the place I work and it is a nightmare for me. I swear that place has got to be 80 degrees, oh that's not so bad you say. Well when your running around for 8, 10 hours yeah it's bad. Why can't they turn some air on, why do they think it's o.k. for people to be in that heat.Funny you walk through the front where the main offices are, it's nice and cool.I understand that people have different levels of heat tolerance. Fine, but what about us that can't stand the high temps can we get some air. You can put on a jacket, I however can not strip.The patients have their own a/c so they have the option of turning them off or on.Meanwhile those of us running around have to suffer, I'm not asking for ice cold just cool enough to where I don't feel like I'm going to pass out.I just don't understand why management thinks this is o.k. I guess their really waiting for someone to pass out.
