Prison Break

Today must be my bitch day! I have many of those lately, but I plan to dump everything here and attempt to have a really good day.

My schedule is a point of concern for me lately. As a float nurse I am required to cover a few off shifts and weekends. I think it comes down to three off shifts and four weekend shifts within a four week schedule.

It use to be that we would work three shifts that ran 11a t0 11p. I hated these shifts because it meant you would be floated three or more times within a 12 hour shift. And there is one dumbass house coordinator who is clueless and floats even more often than that.

Anyway, I spoke to the scheduler and discovered I could add a shift and work three eight hour shifts and a 12 hr shift. My off shifts could actually be 3p to 11p and this was much more reasonable than those damn 11a-11p shifts and for the last two months that what I have been doing.

The last schedule I noticed the number of 3-11 shifts I was scheduled for increased from three to five, but big deal. I was just happy that I was done with the 11a-11p.

Saturday, I went down to pick up the new schedule and noticed a few things that caused my blood to boil. First, they stopped releasing a four week schedule and no will only provide a two week schedule. Second I was scheduled for three 3-11 shifts and one 11a-11p, WTF???

I was HOT! I then looked at the schedule for others who do eight/twelve shifts and noticed that I was the only one given the horrid 11a-11p shift. I know it does not sound like such a big deal, but it is yet another of a growing list of fuck ups I have endured at this piece of shit facility!

Deep breath! Find my happy place! In and out! Where was I?

So, it just builds on my aggravation with this facility. I want out so bad I can taste it and my attitude is growing darker and darker with each passing shift. My friends tell me to ignore it because I am almost done with the place and will never be here again and it reality they are right.

However, I feel like a damn about to burst and each little fuck up pushes me closer and closer to walking the fuck out.
