so, the hospital i work for was voted one of the top what ever, to work for. don't get me wrong, i think my job is ok. but, it's no different than any other hospital. we got a cute little bag of goodies, a bag with prtetzels, an apple and a granola bar . the bag of pretzels was the very small air line size. the apple was small thick skinned and bitter, the granola bar was high in fat and calories. but any who, we got it because the hospital was voted one of the top. of course the vote must have been done before, the decision to change the health care plan. the co -pays are higher, they cover less, and the rate went up a rediculous amount. i just think it's funny how the admin must think we don't have a brain of our own and believe that we get those stupid little bags and think,, wow, i'm so glad we work for such a good company and go skipping off about our merry way with a big grin on our face.....just to get yelled at in triage by pt's upset about heaven knows what , abused by pres-gainy all while we remember , during our 13 hour day with no break , how good of a place we work for. oh happy day. i wounder what's next, i suppose lay-offs or a cut in staffing. maybe we'll get an orange injected with sugar and a snicker bar for that one. oh, my gosh, i'll catch ya'all soon i have to run to the pot, i have the runs after eating the apple they gave us.
There's another thread on this board about the best and worst gifts and bonuses people have received.
The strangest one I ever got? Before I went back to school, I was a clerical employee at an insurance company, and I once came up with an idea that would save the company more than $100 a month. And what was my prize? A light bulb painted red. Couldn't even use it in a lamp or anything.

Ahhh, that's nice. Now that's what I'm talking about. Sincere thanks. That's the kind of thing that makes working conditions good when things are bad.:redpinkhe Sounds like your hospital doesn't care to "keep up with the Jones'"
