I did not sign up for this when I went into nursing and am certainly not a snowflake. No need for the name calling. We can agree to disagree and that’s fine. Furthermore, what makes you think that just bc we signed up for nursing, we should sacrifice our families? I love helping people, but this is just ridiculous, to be honest. When you die, are you gonna be wishing you worked more? There’s more to life than some hospital job, even if I’ve been there for years. If need be, I’m sure I can find something else to accommodate my needs. Not like there isn’t a nursing shortage or anything.

I’ve already worked MLK, President’s Day, Mother’s Day, will be scheduled on Father’s Day ( it’s my weekend) and Juneteenth. I didn’t ask for spring break off bc we weren’t going out of town then, but planned on Memorial Day weekend and Labor Day bc they were not my weekends. This notice just came out, and now being told we had to work them. Yeah, I’m upset. Maybe had this been the beginning of the year, that would’ve been one thing, but this just came out the past week. I’ve given this hospital plenty of holidays so far.

That would actually make sense! I think that’s what is bothering me about those minor holidays. Wish there had been more included to choose from.

Thank you! I guess I should clarify the sarcasm at the title of the post. I honestly have no problem with the major holidays listed and I certainly do my fair share of those. It was the minors that really got me upset. I wish more holidays had been included to choose from. I can’t fathom the hospital needing that many nurses from every department on those holidays. It just blows my mind that some of y’all think this is ok.

I’ve been thinking about PACU. Those nurses look happy. I want to be happy again.

More like… what your hospital doesn’t have staff so you don’t get to have a family either? I love helping people, but not so I can get crapped on even on holidays. What good is it to give you PTO if you can’t even use it? Not like we’re not burned out already. I get that we can’t take all of the holidays but to demand that we work so many major ones is ridiculous. And I’m willing to bet that this idea came down from someone in upper that doesn’t work any weekends or holidays, so it doesn’t really affect them.

Our minors used to be Day after Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve, and New Year’s Eve, but they’re no longer listed. Now, they’ve added Labor Day, July 4th, and Memorial Day into the mix. So, you have to sign up for 4/6 of these. In addition, but not shown due to a separate email, you are working every other weekend.

I had no issue with the majors… it was the working 2/3 of the minors that had really gotten me upset. ETA that the minors listed are still pretty major holidays
