    txnurse4thewin posted a topic in California Nursing

    Ok. It's official union said it was too legit. They can't touch it and I was fired today. And I'm still short on my paycheck! Sigh. I'd just give up but now that I am jobless, I need that money for...

    It's Monday! And guess what?! I had to call them! It was getting to 4p and I know everyone leaves around 430/5p and I hadn't received a call yet... I guess they didn't find what they're looking for...

    All I can tell you is I tried. I never got the job. I am still trying. Good

    txnurse4thewin replied to txnurse4thewin's topic in California Nursing

    Yeh... I realized I should have had my rep there after I got into the office. My DSD said, "We are going to talk about this." No mention of suspension or discipline. And it was concerning a pt that...

    txnurse4thewin replied to txnurse4thewin's topic in California Nursing

    No reply yet but erstwhile I've been suspended from work. I think they're working up to firing me. I guess I shouldn't have filed that grievance about reducing my pay AND not receiving my raise AND...

    txnurse4thewin replied to nurseguy213's topic in California Nursing

    txnurse4thewin replied to txnurse4thewin's topic in California Nursing

    I don't like it but my facility seems to like nurturing a sort of cut throat atmosphere. Everyone for his/herself lest they get thrown under the bus too. This is only my second job but it is so bad....

  18. Job Satisfaction: Can it be real in this field?

    txnurse4thewin replied to thelittledoe's topic in Health, Stress Management
