I am curious from other nurses about a work related question. Does anyone know if you work doubles that are scheduled (not over time pay) does it get paid the same as working two regular shifts? I was thinking about it, technically instead of working 8 hours and being there for 8.5 hours for lunch I'm there for 16.5 hours but get two lunches. Just heads up. This isn't mandatory I choose to work doubles to be home with my son more. But what I'm wondering is will I be losing 30 minutes every shift I work a double instead of two regular shifts? Or does your employer pay you for two shifts. I hope this makes sense.

I completely understand what you are going through. My program has a lot of the same problems. Lots of drama, lies and just plain terrible people. My program a lot of the girls have formed a group and plan special events without us and the other girls and constantly talk crap in front of patients and even treat the teachers horrible. I just keep my head down and pray time flys by so I don't have to see them again. Never been treated so horrible by people. It's sad this is going to be future nurses.
