Is there some way you can start a rumour of mass sackings coming up? Just make sure it doesn't get around that you started it.

It is bad management to punish everybody for the actions of some. Those people should be dealt with individually.

I would definitely choose something different, hate nursing.

You don't have anything to lose by reaching out to them. If they were moving slowly with the recruitment process, it's possible the position is still available. However wanting you to leave a current position without the appropriate notice is a red...

Yeah I thought that too. Rather a lot of crowing and blowing about how smart the OP is and how stupid the colleague is.

Nah, got nothing.

Hospitality is every bit as serious as nursing. People rely on the hospitality staff for safe food and drinks, feeling socially comfortable and included, dealing with all sorts of behind the scenes crises. Nursingstudents or even nurses could shine...

You need to see an employment lawyer ASAP and get their advice. You will need all the help you can get to beat this bunch of slimy a$$holes. No wonder nursing is ******.

No, when residents or anyone else assault staff or other residents/patients, and management tries to cover it up it is time to go hard. Unfortunately, to prevent career suicide, I think the OP has to leave and then report.

The "studies" to which you refer was ONE study and we don't know how rigorous that study was. Further, she can state her opinion as anyone else can. She doesn't have to confine it to the religion forum as it is a by the bye comment, not a discussion...

Nothing says appreciation like cash.

NO F***ing way!!! If I could find another job that would pay me as much I would leave nursing tomorrow, or even this afternoon if possible.

Do anything and everything you have to to keep yourself safe. Your workplace will not have your back if you are injured.

You have absolutely no evidence to support this position.

If you are not being paid on time, you owe this workplace no loyalty. Run, don't walk, away.

I'm very disappointed in the number of posters who think that patients assaulting nurses is "part of being a nurse". No it's not. I was assaulted by a patient, not a psych patient, not a demented old person but a nasty man whose daughter said he us...

Whatever you do, do not get sucked into nursing.

Is this still going? Geez, some people can't have too many problems.

I'd go the nights if it was up to me. Yes it will be tough but you get your working week over in 2 days, with one zombie day. If the money is the same, take the extra time at home with your baby. You can't get that time back.

I run ultra marathons and swim naked as much as possible.

No it's "I'd be happy to help IF I have the time."

Nah, it's a thing. People have realised they can make a buck out of being offended.

The reason they are discouraging briefs is because they cost more than toweling and Chux. A bean counter somewhere is probably charging the health care insurer for briefs but instructing staff to use towel. It all comes down to the mighty dollar.

Don't do this. You need to be perfectly clear that you are not interested and that their "advances" are inappropriate and unwelcome. Do not smile when you tell them no.

Two weeks notice is usual. Give that and if they don't like it just say that is all you are able to give.
