Month: November 2023

I am done with feeling. anxious about people checking every single off my story and regretting adding people to my instagram. Whats ur take on this? I am just going to have one private account going forward. And it's nice to take a break from socials anyways.

I work at a housing first homeless shelter. I love my clients, but I don’t think it’s fair I’m given all of the clients unable to advocate for themselves, however, still expected to finish everything in a typical 40 hour work week. I get it if notes are expected to be updated in a timely fashion in order to appease the county. However, we also have to do “follow ups” which are stupid bc the requirements of what those consist of keeps changing, yet we’re still held accountable for making sure past follow ups satisfy the new requirement. I was even told for awhile that we will no longer have to do follow ups, but suddenly we do and the criteria for what they must consist of has suddenly changed and I’m still accountable for the moment in time we were told that they didn’t matter. Anyways, I have a…

I live in US as I'm sure most of you do. Are there any Organizations I can join Fighting our good fight? I want to be an active participant in enforcing change.

Seriously. I’ve been in various roles in healthcare since I was 19. From level 1 traumas to managing multiple hospital complaints. I wiped ass before that as well. I sit in front of a computer summarizing visits for doctors. Does that mean I type all day! Yes and I love it!!! Now you want me to change the job description and be in rooms with patients. Yes I’d like to say I’m a full blown introvert that did my duty working with people of all personalities and I’m ready to settle down. All I want to do is sit at home and enter data without people around me that want to move up, want to gossip about what coworker did, etc. Don’t even look at me. I’m literally here to make money. Everyone else is just background noise. Leave me alone. I have two kids, I’m happily married, i own…

Im paid 35 dollars for jury duty, and my district is demanding that from me. They're paying me for that day, but can't let me keep my money I get from a separate entity. 35 extra dollars. ​ I'm really irritated because theres no reason for that, besides them not wanting me to have extra money that has nothing to do with them?

So budget meetings are happening now and prior to them, our boss said in a staff meeting that now would be the time to make requests such as more vacations, benefits, etc. A few weeks ago, I learned a newish coworker had 14 days of vacation outlined in their offer letter. This only came up because I was explaining how all hires get 10 vacation days, as outlined in the employee handbook. They showed me their letter and it indeed says 14 while mine says 10. I brought this matter up in my budget meeting, expressing that if my coworker's offer letter was indeed correct, that I would like my yearly vacation days to match. I've worked here over two years and have not requested any change in my benefits until now. My boss was shocked at this and expressed that the 14 days was an error, and that it…

So I got laid off in 2021 due to a reorganization. It was a really toxic workplace. I worked really hard and helped people with their projects. I shielded my staff from the politics. I was disappointed when people were suddenly not really there for me. They sure wanted my help when I was there. So I see someone who I used to manage and did a nice drive by hello. Kept walking. I figured if they didn’t reach out after I got laid off I wasn’t going to make an effort. In fact I deleted people off of LinkedIn, Facebook etc. I have no motivation to stay in touch.

I worked 14 days in a row. The 2 7th days are overtime. Here’s how I’m understanding it; I get the 7th consecutive day as overtime Then on the 8th day it resets regardless of having worked 8 consecutive days?
