kitkat - your unit is overstaffed????? sweeeeeet. here it is always a battle. full-time staff are pulling overtime. casual and part-time are working full-time. I got out of that rat race four years ago - and just spending a few hours in the hospital with my son last week, made me so happy I wasn't still there

It's interesting that management has been harping on bad morale when they are the cause of it. I once had a manager like that. I was in her office for a 'conference' and she said "Well, what do you have to say?". I just looked at her and said "I understand you've been a manager of some sort for 25 years" she nodded. I just continued with "Well, it's a shame that you never learned the difference between fear and respect because I'm not afraid of you" I smiled and nodded and let myself out of her office. (no I wasn't fired because they needed me too badly). I'm afraid kitkat has managers like that. They never learned the difference between fear and respect.

I admit...I'm only surprised cause we had an hour less sleep a week ago for that reason[:o] I admit I just placed a low bet on 4 office waiting area sofa chairs (5€ each), a simple sitting bench (2€) as well as 2 desk chairs (1€)...and am curious if I'll be winning any of those[:D] I admit I am hesitant to bid on anything until I have my new flat for sure but as they refurnished their office and so offered many things, which would be handy in my current situation, I couldn't resist...even when it'll likely mean to carry it up here to carry it down again soon later[8\|] I admit my estate agent removed my flat from immobilienscout24.de and I hope she did so out of confidence that I'll get that flat[&o] I admit I would like to pack up all my stuff on my floor but have so no energy to do anything really, today[:(]

I admit my bosses at my current employer are like that and in that instance I'm glad to leave...I keeping laughing on way home way too often about D's I'm-so-important-attitude and dont care that much about details at work anymore...I do what is necessary but that's it... I admit her problem is that I not only don't fear her...but on top of it she didn't gain my respect either[8\|] I admit on my way to view my flat today the topic of the radio channel were "life-wisdom-phrases" we use in daily life or like or just know... I admit I enjoyed the one from the final caller who said "people who keep putting people down all the time (meaning: who try to make them feel small) will never be able to grow up themselves". [:D]

My hospital is a "small trauma centre". We only have 1 combined general surgical/orthopaedic ward consisting of 41-45 patients. Day and evening shift ratios are 1:4-6, night shift ratio 1:7-10. Our acuity levels flactuate dramatically due to the fact we don't have a HDU or step down unit from ICU so it's not unusual for us to have 4-6 ICU level patients on our ward. We know as a team we work as hard as we can but have spent the last 12 months in particular very stressed due to management singling out my ward for doing anything wrong. We never get positive feedback, only negative. Add those "little meetings" with the high workload = unhappy, frequently sick, stressed nurses. I admit I just got to have a nice little skype session! I admit Ruby slept next to my feet all night. I admit my Mum is cooking me bacon & eggs for breakfast. How spoilt am I?

I admit that for the last 15 years of my nursing career - my managers were very rarely even had any medical background at all - they simply had degrees in business administration

The head of the accounting/purchasing department literally did NOT know what the company did. No idea whatsoever.

So she was once, a registered nurse, many many moons ago before she defected to the private system to learn to be a manager. I admit I was so busy & walked so much tonight I honestly feel like crying. My feet & legs are literally throbbing and my feet are swollen. I hate feeling so task orientated. I admit I'll be awake in 7 hours to do it all again.

I admit I was a bit pissy to Mr A today... I admit he asked me why I'm doing that and told me why he was silent for quite a few days... I admit I told'em that it is my job to keep him in line when he pisses off without asking for permission at first[8\|] I admit[&:] reading his response I'm glad he's still far far away in Qatar[&:] cause his reply sounds like as if my arse would be pretty sore now if I'd have given him such a response in person[&:] I admit my mouth is my worst enemy at times[&o]

I admit that its april so I can start counting down to the end of tax season! Now I am in Money panic Mode, which sucks, but I knew it would happen. I think it will be awhile before I feel rested. I am only working 75-80 hours a week but dang that is not easy anymore!

yourdarkdesire -> RE: I Admit It I........ (4/1/2012 10:39:41 AM)
I admit that I found an amazing website called www.zulily.com and that I have bought a bunch of stuff for my little girls 9th birthday, including an adorable Tinkerbell necklace!

LadyHibiscus -> RE: I Admit It I........ (4/1/2012 12:11:02 PM)
I admit that my new-to-me netbook is squeee-worthy!! I can't access the web in my office, but I can crash at coffee shops everywhere! SOON. When I can go out and sit in coffee shops.
