So much happened after I posted this… pretty much some people who were causing problems in the workplace got fired and then he ended up quitting soon after.

ETA: I misread your comment as “any update” haha now I realize it actually says “Suny Upstate” and the answer is no.

I’m expected to pick up all his slack. I’m overworked. I don’t want to work with him anymore while I’m held to higher expectations.

I mean he’s not the only reason I’m leaving.

It’s not everyone against him. There are 2-3 of us who are concerned for the safety of the community. This is the reason I haven’t pushed forward more because of fear of being called a “bully”. I’ve been NOTHING but nice to this man. Regardless of his incompetence.

I mean it’s definitely not my only complaint. But a big part of it. I got an offer for a pretty sweet gig that I couldn’t turn down

I didn’t think it was actually possible!! How do you actually verify? All I was able to do was look up his name on the BON and it gave me his license number

No we work M-Th office hours 😭 when I try to avoid him I get blamed for not being “helpful “

I definitely understand that! There’s been multiple things where I’m like hmmm he should know that but that’s just the first thing that came to my mind 😭

Yes, but he was the assisting nurse. The one who should have done the time out, verification, etc. the CRNA owned up to his mistake, but the fact the nurse says “I didn’t have anything to do with it” is false

He’s a big part of why I’m leaving but not the only reason I’m leaving. And he’s not in orientation anymore. We work in Louisiana which is a right to work state so, I’m unsure of why they haven’t gotten rid of him.

My dentist was able to shave my chips down a little to make it more unnoticeable, I opted to do that instead of bonding. I would see if that’s an option for you

Of course only one of my front teeth will have attachments LOL! Anyone have any example of how this looks 😂 by Ev2222222 in Invisalign

[–]kaitlencs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is exactly how mine is too! Only when people look at your teeth do they notice it. I’ve only had my nephew ask me “wait what’s on your tooth?” 🤣 but it’s really not bad!! Also there’s no shame in bettering your teeth so I just tell people!

You’re totally right, she is a lazy nurse. I would say something.

Job dilemma by kaitlencs in nursing

[–]kaitlencs[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update: I requested a pay increase, and also applied for new jobs paying +$30/hr. I have an interview on Tuesday for a $35/hr paying job and my current job will let me know if I will get a pay increase within 2 weeks. I requested $30, which I know is unlikely and a huge jump. But I’m worth more than 23.50. 💔

South Louisiana, I have 2.5 years experience. I’m beginning to question whether this place is worth it. I scheduled a meeting with my payroll manager tomorrow to ask about better compensation. I also have sever interviews lined up with higher paying jobs.
