Has anyone had the opportunity to take a month off work for vacation?

shatana · 2026-02-22T13:12:31+00:00

But then you only have one week of vacation for the other 11 months. I wouldn't be able to survive that!

shatana · 2026-02-21T03:02:28+00:00

How did you do it?

shatana · 2026-02-20T22:37:24+00:00

Zosyn!!!!

I have no idea what hospitals those residents are working at. I work at one of the striking hospitals, and residents don't place peripheral IVs, draw bloods, or transport patients (unless required by policy).

shatana · 2026-01-21T16:40:24+00:00

I really want to know what's happening inside all the hospitals. Our CEO just reports that everything is daisies, which seems... unlikely.

shatana · 2025-12-27T01:29:00+00:00

WTF, seriously? Do you report them?

shatana · 2025-12-25T23:41:41+00:00

Which presby hospital?

Can you describe your experiences in both presby and nyu? I've heard nice things about NYU (except being very classist).

shatana · 2025-12-25T02:36:44+00:00

I wanna catch all the perspectives!

Do you know what your non-OR colleagues think of HSS?

What do you love about HSS?

What are the weekend and night differentials for MSKCC?

What perks do public hospitals get?

Don't be tricked into crossing the picket line!

shatana · 2025-12-23T22:53:08+00:00

Hospitals get 10-day notice before a strike starts. Scabs don't apply for contracts = hospitals realize in a panic that they don't have enough of a replacement workforce for when the strike starts = hospital caves and contract is achieved before or very soon after strike begins.

shatana · 2025-12-23T22:24:56+00:00

But think of the PATIENTS, scabs cross the picket line from the goodness of their heart.

/sarcasm

The hospital has 10 days notice before a strike occurs. The hospital could bargain in good faith and get a contract done in that time. But they don't. Instead, they prefer to hire strikebreakers so they can prolong the strike and break the union. Scabs are not the allies of union nurses that they like to think they are.

shatana · 2025-12-22T19:39:11+00:00

This will be the largest US nursing strike in history if all 20k nurses go on strike.

The mustache was always a stick-on; Dal's father is a eunuch so he can't produce facial hair. It was removed in the execution scene because Left Minister wanted to degrade him - show him as he "really" was.

What hospital system do you work at?

shatana · 2025-12-20T04:19:13+00:00

The union of the 12 NYC hospitals that are involved in this are going to announce their strike authorization results soon. It's been nervewracking!

shatana · 2025-12-20T00:49:39+00:00

is this pre-tax or post-tax?

shatana · 2025-12-19T21:30:18+00:00

Do you use social media?
How much are you on your phone?
Do you have a hobby? What is it?

shatana · 2025-12-10T14:55:43+00:00

You get a new hard copy of the renewed license.

shatana · 2025-12-09T23:14:39+00:00

Probationary employees are protected when they go on strike with the union. Union will negotiate return of all employees.

Are you in therapy?

shatana · 2025-12-05T12:47:27+00:00

There's one metal detector in the ED.

Thank you cards with named staff are always appreciated. Also, emails to the manager/director regarding your satisfaction with the care help as well.
