My manager routinely sends out reminder emails that we are to come to work while sick unless we have actively vomited or have a fever within hours of a shift. I had a fever one time and I called in. I...
Hello all, I've been in working in a level 4 NICU in a children's hospital for 2 years now and I'm trying to update my resume work experience, but I feel like I'm either writing a novel or not...
