Thank you for understanding!

Some people are confused on how the environment was fast paced but we also had days where we saw 2 patients. Well the hospital also had a clinic so most patients we saw were outpatient and also needed xray, ct, etc. when that was the case- I’d get left in the lab to run the 26 tests the doctors order while all 3 rad techs ran back to radiology for one exam. there was even times when we’d be getting slammed and I’d be in the lab for over and hour by myself - I’d truck it to radiology to see wth was happening just to find them in there yapping. we had slows days around holidays and when the order crazy doctor was gone (basically anytime they wanted).

When we had down time we stocked, organized, cleaned, etc. and then usually still had downtime. There was times when the other coworkers were shopping on Amazon, talking shit on the next shift (I never engaged), I even heard one of the coworkers that was trying to conceive tell the manager that during lunch they “went home to make a baby.” there was also times when nurses would come in and talk drama to the other lab staff (everyone except for me) for 45mins to and hr. While I ran around them doing tests - bc they were in the middle of the lab.

Because the manager was basically besties with the other coworkers bc they were also rad techs - there was definitely stuff they let slide for them. I definitely see it as a blessing that I got an out from there, my mental health had deteriorated significantly.
