First let me say, I am starting to see the writing on the wall. My place of employment, which I have loved for the last ten years, has become something else. New nurses. New CNAs. New owners. Huge turnover for various reasons. Promotions of individuals who should not have been pushed up the ladder, but it happened anyway. The fact that I have to ask the question in the first place means there's a problem that's not going anywhere for the short term.
There is a supervisor who handles scheduling, that always works on the same days as myself.
For the last 6-8 months there have been scheduling problems involving him with dept transfers and low census time off. It's always my turn. The loss of income and stress is starting to hurt.
We aren't union, and I understand that the facility can staff any way they want. Their show, their rules. Having said all that, there is a policy that the other supervisors adhere to. Just not this supervisor.
I have been to the floor manager numerous times with my complaints. She says she'll look into it. No, it's not fair, the supe is out of line, blah blah blah. I am pacified until it happens again.
And again. As I said, I'm starting to see the writing on the wall.
Do I now go to the CNE and complain? Then to the administrator? Then to HR?
Keep quiet, or just start looking for a new job?
Fifteen years ago I would have already been looking for a new job. At my age it's not going to be easy. To find work, or a comparable wage.
Has anyone been in a similar situation? What did you do?
