So do lawyers, teachers, secretaries, hair stylists, bus drivers, executives, architects, doctors, infotechies, electricians, and just about anyone who feels that they have to make others look bad so they can look good. Besides I've met more than enough good, caring nurses to make up for the creeps. The fastest way to cure a patient's bout of diarrhea is to have the doctor order a stool sample. Alot of patients seem to think that a hospital or SNF is a luzury hotel like the Plaza or the Waldorf-Astoria and that we're maids and room service. And then they complain because they can' t get a hot pastrami on rye or a pepperoni pizza at 4 am.
Health care sucks.
You're overworked, understaffed, underpaid, kicked in the ass, and screwed, glued, and tattooed from one end of the state to the other. But then, so does every other workplace, where the ethic is to screw the employees and drain the most amount of work out of them for the least amount of money. And then employers wonder whatever happened to employee loyalty. Well, if you want us to be loyal to you, be loyal to us instead of screwing us around. The only reward you get for doing your work is more work.
