yeah -us union covered nurses have to deal for 3 full year until we are granted tenure. Then the gloves come off and we can fight a bit harder against the injustices like missing our contracted lunches while the teachers never have to miss theirs. Only 2 more to go for me at this school and i'll once again be tenured.... and back in the fight
Are the nurses usually granted tenure? I was wondering if it's really just a longer "probation", or if it's a nerve-wracking 3 years, wondering if you'll still have a job at the end? I am in a union at my district, but it's nowhere near as strong as the teachers' union.
I am currently "exploring my options", so I want to have an idea of what's out there...
Thanks!
