I've come to the conclusion that you are simply missing a few lightbulbs. How can you threaten to write your staff up for everything and expect us to love our job? I ask you to back off and let us do our job because, I know this is hard to believe, but before you came on board last year, we actually managed to get everything done that you now want to write us up for not doing your way.
Please quit and bother some other poor nursing staff. Just go away. Quit sleeping with the security guards. There is only one way you could have hurt your back at work...you do no pt care, you do nothing but sit on your orifice and make everyone's life miserable (well except for those security that you manage to make miserable too) so that leaves bending over your desk. We all know it! Go have sex in your own home, it's disgusting and your disgusting. You may think your a manager, but you suck big honking red baboon butt! Whew that's all for now folks!
TO my current Boss: You are only my Boss because NO ONE will take the actual Bosses position in our office. You know NOTHING about what I am supposed to do in this role, and thus I wish you would broker an agreement ot allow me to be supervised by our parent facility...and leave it at that. Instead, you are making me feel quite nervous, and the act that you are running the ship single handedly is getting old, as we all know it is the rest of the office that is functioning well....
Please do not take credit for my work....YOu do enough work on your own and I don't see why it is such a problem to allow me to succeed in my position, which is not your position and in no way threatens you!
You disgust me. You seriously make me want to throw up. You lie about everything and then turn it around to make everyone around you look bad. You told five different stories about your mother's admission and how poorly she was treated by your coworkers. The night you claim to have spent the entire night in the ER in the neighboring town...that was also a lie. Do you not remember that one of our nurses works PRN there and was on that night and did not see you? Do you not realize that I drive by your house every morning on my way to work and that I saw you outside smoking and walking your dog while you were supposed to be in the ER? Do you not remember that the doctor you claim he saw left the area over six months ago? I know you have a lot of stress in your life right now, but start reaching out to people for help instead of making everyone miserable with your lies!

That shiny metal handle on the back of the toilet? Please use it! I'm sure I'm not the only one who gets disgusted walking into the locker room and half of the toilets have someone's bodily waste still in them!
See this orange hand sticker on my name tag? That means I AM NEW. When I ask you a question, that means I am asking because I genuinely do not know, not because I want to get in your way or waste your time. Perhaps you could please stop ROLLING YOUR EYES at me and drop that snarky tone out of your voice. I don't need you to hold my hand, but maybe a gentle direction to ask my fellow nurses instead of snarking at me and storming off would make ALL our lives a little easier.
In a nutshell, your attitude sucks. I pride myself on my ability to at least get along with everyone, but you are seriously testing my patience and my good will. Consider this: I won't always be so clueless as to how you like your cases to run, but you will probably ALWAYS be an ******* and I for one am going to remember how you treated me when all I wanted was to do right by our patients.

Dear ED Doc:
See this orange hand sticker on my name tag? That means I AM NEW. .
REALLY ? You have to wear a sticker to tell everyone you are new? That's your policy? Is that a common one?I have never heard of such a thing.When are you un-stickered? And suppose that after your orientation someone decides you need more time,are you then re-stickered? How new do you have to be? A new grad? What if you have just been out of the field for a few years? Do you get a sticker? Who decides? I see a great opportunity here for my workplace. I see "I'm a lazy orifice and I don't care" stickers ,"I'm a nasty person" stickers and " I'm don't know nor do I care to get my lazy inconsiderate butt moving to find out that info for you" stickers. Everyone would know at a glance who to deal with on any given unit and who to walk away from....GENIUS!!!! LOVE IT!!!!
But seriously,I see it as rather demeaning.A "green " nurse has to find her way,you must learn how to communicate effectively with peers and the medical staff and your education should have given you the tools to build on.Very few physicians will pass on the opportunity tro educate a nurse (in my experience) if you seem truly interested in learning but if you are asking policy and procedure these are things you should be familiar with so you may get a rude response.
For ktwlpn: Maybe you have not worked at many different hospitals, but in at least 2 hospitals I worked at, new hires had some sort of identifier, showing others that they were new. While I did not have a sticker, I believe I had a thin green strip across the badge. Their rational was not to demean us, but to inform others, in the hope that they would offer help. Not just nursing help, but in case we looked like we were lost in the halls, (that was me!!) while navigating around the hospital; or maybe just a cue to introduce themselves, when we were in other areas of the hospital. I found it to be helpful most of the time.
You stated:

In reference to the above statement, why are you assuming that this poster was asking the physician or any other ED staff a question about policy and procedure. What makes you assume that she does not know how to communicate effectively? Maybe it was to clarify an order, or about patient care. She is in the process of "finding her way."
I do not care about or want to participate in a baby shower for a coworker, a going away party for the ones leaving, a christmas party, a 4th of july party etc. Put the sign up asking for participants BUT leave me alone. Lucky for me, not as big of an issue on night shift. The day shifters are the ones who enjoy these "parties". IF you do partake in this, I do not , THEN CLEAN UP YOUR OWN MESS. I WILL NOT clean any of it up, no matter how slow of a night it is.
If you know I am doing a procedure that will take a bit, ( ng tubes, foleys etc, changing a huge incontinent patient, feeding someone) and another pt of mine asks for pain meds, GET OFF YOUR BUTT AND GO GIVE THEM. DO NOT ACT LIKE YOU DID ME A FAVOR EITHER, you didn't give me anything. GET OFF YOUR BUTT AND GO GET THE OXY IR 5MG to the walkie talkie that will swallow them fine. do not wait 30mins to then remember to tell me, all while you were sitting at the desk doing NOTHING. it makes me so annoyed

Thanks for this thread, it really helps! Here goes:
Excuse me, I KNOW you are a super nurse, and I KNOW you know how to do EVERYTHING all by yourself, but do you mind if a little pion like myself help?
Oh his bs is 46 and you send him to me? How nice, so you didn't do a nurse intervention? Like give him some oj maybe?
Oh the pulse ox machine doesn't work so we'll just skip that portion of our assessment. Never mind that he has a history of Asthma!
Phone's ringing its for you. Please don't tie up the line with all your boyfriends as someone with a real emergency may need to get thru!
This is just the starters!
