The Bitching Thread

[lizard]

Goddamit...so over a week ago I submit two leave slips to my boss to take the 21st and 24th off, the days the wife flies to and returns from NYC... and he still hasn't signed them as approved or disapproved, I shouldn't have to chase him around like an errant schoolboy....

fuck you, management, just....fuck you.

I should have called this "The Bitch Thread" so all you lowlifes would think it's for bitching about women

ahh, the ol "submitted leave forms but the boss didnt bother to sign them" routine. classic. We recently had a guy just not show up for work because he didn't care to listen to the boss when she told him he didn't get the days off he wanted. Apparently, he made reservations and bought plane tickets PRIOR to asking for the days off. What a dickhead.

that's pretty stupid, NEVER make plans w/o management signatures, going AWOL/falsification of time sheets is how they nail your ass with disciplinary actions.

This particular guy is a complete dumbass. I'm not sure how he made it through nursing school. I can't figure out how everyone I work with made it through nursing school. This one guy's previous job was driving a bread truck. No joke. Now he's responsible for people's lives.

oh thanks a lot, i'll never trust a hospital again

and that's not an invitation to tell me all the other ways our health is in the hands of cretins, capisce?

Honestly, I fear having to go to the hospital. My colleagues in dialysis are fucking morons. They amaze me with the stuff they do. The people I worked with in the ICU are almost equally as stupid.
Nurses are stupid people, folks. And until nursing education changes and/or there is no longer a shortage of nurses, it will continue to attract people who drive bread trucks for a living. Not that I'm cracking on bread truck drivers - everyone has to have a job - I'm just saying it's not a good idea, from what I've observed.

First day back at work after a weekend of camping in the middle of nowhere. I am needlessly hating life for the time being, but it'll pass soon enough.

 

[dorian gray]

What's stuck up your craw, adrian?

 

[dorian gray]

beware, the nurse with the rye-smelling fingers

you mean the bread or the drink?

 

[NAD]

The fact that I'm back at work after spending 3 days at 8,000 feet far above the smog.

Eh, who cares. Nigga gotta eat = gotta go to work.

I just read yesterday that LA is 10 times as big as Nashville.
hahahahaha
That's insane.

either, but I was thinking of a loaf-fondling bread delivery driver.

I just read yesterday that LA is 10 times as big as Nashville.

hahahahaha

That's insane.

dude...when you hit LA's suburbs, you're still driving for like two hours more before you even get to the city

only other american city that compares to its sprawl is maybe Chicago.

 

[dorian gray]

He also toted around do-nuts. I thought that part was pretty cool actually.

 

[NAD]

Yeah I'm 30 miles away from LA county limits, 50 miles from the city limits. Up until around 5 years ago we were the quiet city that LA people didn't like so we didn't have to worry about dickheads coming out for the weekend but... nope. Now they all live here. P'oh.

 

[lizard]

I would fight tooth and nail if I had to move to LA. I'd be like one of those guys who puts a blow up doll in the passenger seat so he can use the carpool lanes

 

[dorian gray]

I'm pretty sure some Chicago suburbs aren't too far from here.

 

[NAD]

LA is 90% shit, 10% amazing. The 10% makes it worth visiting but I could never live there. So instead it just comes to me, hahaha FUCK.

the wife is from L.A. she's going back to visit next month.
