Rude call off

A little more than a month ago, I started PRN at a psych hospital and have been experiencing much hostility from one nurse. I've been letting it ride, but today it became an issue. She's missed a lot of work for personal reasons, and today she marches in 3/4 of the way through my shift (which was scheduled a month ago) and tells me to give her report on my patients because she's taking them, because she's staff and I'm PRN and and that's the way it is. Just like that. No one had clued me in, although I figure the other nurses working knew she was coming. The DON came to make amends as I was entering my shift notes--asked if I wanted to finish the shift. "H*ll no!" I'm thinking. I have better places to be. I finished my work and left.

I took PRN in hopes of a staff job. I don't get paid what other PRNs say they make. Now I can't wait to blow them off when they ask me to work the holidays! No remorse. The lack of civility I've seen in this profession is unprecedented. I don't get it.
