Conversations about raise

Quick question. My job is based in Utah, not from there so I'm not sure of the laws there. After my raise of 3.4% he said not discuss my pay with my coworkers. He specifically said it was his recommendation but only at the end. Was this legal? Still bother by that conversation.

I think being dead is better than my work

I wrote here before. I am a healthcare worker and I am sick ad tired of working for this place, it feels like I am the only one caring about patients and common sense. I am an MRI tech and this week so far has been a rollercoaster ride. Monday a patient came and said he had an implant removed but he is not sure if they left anything behind. ( MRI is a strong magnet) so I decided to discuss with the radiologist who agreed with me to have this patient get xrays done. My department doesn’t want me to cancel patients because they lose money. Yesterday I had a patient who complained about his ankle and his order was foot radiologist refused to talk to me about it.

Quit my job and my idiot boss I was trying to get away from followed me to my new job

My boss of 7 years never let me take a lunch because it could “risk patient care.” I was told it's a “working lunch” = must stay at my computer, but “no food allowed at the computer”… Boss was budgeted to staff 20hr/wk but never ONCE saw her in 7 years staff or help out when we were dangerously low staffed, especially in winter months. Apparently “risk patient care” only applied to me not being able to take a lunch, not her staffing like she's supposed to. Besides missing lunchbreaks, there were so many stupid things done/said over the years. I got tired of getting screwed over and listening to her goof off in her office. By industry standards, I was doing the work of 3 FTEs. I told her on my way out nobody is going to tolerate these work conditions. She said “I'll hire someone to replace you…
