  1. Backpay for unpaid overtime, what to do it company doesn't respond.

    newrn93 replied to newrn93's topic in General Nursing

    Isn't the incentive for people not to sue? Then again I probably signed some kind of clause that said that I can't sue. I simply did what our union representative suggested that I do. Secondly, she...

  2. Backpay for unpaid overtime, what to do it company doesn't respond.

    newrn93 replied to newrn93's topic in General Nursing

    Yes, major hospital with a MAJOR union, the same union as my recent new job. And no, you would have to find the charge nurse and tell them "that I am leaving now." or put some online note. I feel...

    Hey guys just wanted to update you guys. SO over the past week, I've noticed that this particular nurse who has been giving me grief is being a lot nicer. She's making an effort to joke with me, and...

    newrn93 replied to newrn93's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Wow wow thanks so much for sharing your experience. $7 is quite a significant amount and I imagine that I was perhaps making somewhere in that ball park as much more as my fellow coworkers. I...

    Thanks, im slowly starting to get over this madness. Although it was technically my fault I've never experienced anything like this especially in the workplace. I'll take this forum's and my managers...

    Nightshift is pretty interesting, lol but there's more! When I originally interviewed it was for a nightshift position. I didn't know how I felt about it but rolled with it and figured I could do flu...

    newrn93 replied to newrn93's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    There was already a schedule change due to the hard feelings, which was done for my benefit I suppose. This was a completely diffferent schedule change that occured the SAME day I came in to work (or...

    It's not necessarily the LVN's who are acting nasty, just this one RN. How she acted yesterday and how she looked at me it was VERY clear that she was purposely trying to get a rise out of me....

  9. Accidentally told my coworker what I make, BIG ISSUES NOW

    newrn93 replied to newrn93's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Firstly, I understand where you are coming from but I did NOT interrupt report, she did. She did not ONLY ask me a simple question, she began discussing the matter as the other new RN chimed in. She...

    newrn93 replied to newrn93's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Perhaps I am being to sensitive. I was asking for a date off in advance and I was prepared to take a no as I knew it may have not been possible. I was absolutely fine with that. Just fyi the person...

    newrn93 replied to newrn93's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    BTW go to the bay area. Here's the scoop, my dad is an LVN and my mom is an RN. My mom switched jobs and now my dad as an lvn gets paid more than my mom as an rn. $35 is what my dad makes now but...

    newrn93 replied to newrn93's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    You guys, I'm 2 seconds away from quitting. I truly don't know if it is worth it anymore, just to think that I was going to post here yesterday saying that my job is not that bad, and that it is only...

    newrn93 replied to newrn93's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Well then, I guess you have a certain level of suspicion/aren't too trusting, I suppose if I had that I wouldn't be in this situation

  14. Accidentally told my coworker what I make, BIG ISSUES NOW

    newrn93 replied to newrn93's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Thanks so much for this. She did ask the question ever so innocently! In a way like she didn't know just "Oh out of curiosity," as if she wanted to know for my own well-being! But it's only now...

    newrn93 replied to newrn93's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Actually everyone really liked me (I'm a very nice person) before the mention of my salary to the one coworker who asked, it all changed right then. Funny you say this bc an LVN came up to me today...

  16. Accidentally told my coworker what I make, BIG ISSUES NOW

    newrn93 replied to newrn93's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I'm well aware of this, and that is why I stressed staying for a while (at least 6 months) and doing both jobs. I said I didn't want to be a job-hopper but will definitely take the better option if I...

    LOL but I'm sure you don't live in California. Please come and see the cost of living

  18. Accidentally told my coworker what I make, BIG ISSUES NOW

    newrn93 replied to newrn93's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    . Im in California. Consider cost of living first though. My friend just got a one bedroom apartment for $1800/month. Anyways I couldnt imagine that the other RNS would be working for under 25 while...

    newrn93 replied to newrn93's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Thanks for your advice. I agree. My first nighshift was yesterday and it was not a good day to say the least. Of course I still got snarky looks and unacknowledgement from my previous shift giving...

    newrn93 replied to newrn93's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Agreed. This situation surely brought on a lot of trouble for me. What really irks me is that bc of this lady all the RN's and (prob lvns too) know my wage while I don't know anybody elses wage and...

    newrn93 replied to newrn93's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Your support is very much appreciated! Like seriously (: What I will say is that I have noticed some fiesty attitudes on other posts as well. I think that no matter how much one says it was a certain...

    newrn93 replied to newrn93's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    My acute care positio was in a highly specialized field that I didn't necessarily apply for but got. It was a bit overwhelming to me as a new grad tbh and after discussing with my manager she said...

  24. Accidentally told my coworker what I make, BIG ISSUES NOW

    newrn93 replied to newrn93's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    No, it would not upset me because we do not live in the same states. It makes absolutely no sense to compare wages between state lines because costs of living are different and contribute to the...

  25. Accidentally told my coworker what I make, BIG ISSUES NOW

    newrn93 replied to newrn93's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    While I understand your stance I do feel like some of your statements are a bit unwarranted. Let's not forget that if I was in the same predicament but making a lower wage, there would be NO issues...
