The office

Where do you go when you've done something wrong at work? The office.
Where do you go when other staff members THINK you've done something wrong at work? The office
Where do you go when you're blamed for something that WENT wrong at work? The office
Where do you go when you're a student and your job is tired of working with you? The office

Where can you find me? The office!

The office is one of those places that we all know before we get there that it just can't be good. The office is one of those places that you see and quickly move past before the bossman/woman notices you. The office is like a cold, dark, scary room that only has 2 chairs (one for you and the person blaming you, both sitting across from the person scolding you) The office is small, but with a nice view. The office is known for causing nausea, vomiting, nail biting, yelling and tears. The office is where the little voice in the back of your head keeps telling you " no worries, this lady/man is nuts-o, they've got nothing on you", which in turn relaxes you to some extent. The office SUCKS!

So why do I write this blog about the office we all know about, have gone to or will someday? Because I have been spendnig more time than really needed in the office. The reason for this is what gets me and will get you too. We all know I go to school for nursing. We all know it's takin' me a looong time to get through it. But yea, I was a single Mom for a long time. Now i'm almost done with school (graduation is May.. mark your calendars) and my boss so nicely wants to keep pulling me in her office to tell me that she doesn't believe after all these years she can continue to work around my school schedule. The worst part is this.1.I work in healthcare and RNs are needed. 2. We had an agreement that I worked at least 20hours, they work around me. I've held up my end of deal 100%. I also have worked some lame hours and some nice hours. Maybe I don't change up my hours (lame/nice) through the week but I do change it up through out the semester. The other part of this that completely goes along with my schoool is the staff members I work with. Most of them complain about the amount of time I am there. Which in turn all goes back to my schooling. When is this anyone's concern? I do my job correctly and am good at it. Today, I was called into the office again and was told AGAIN that they just are not sure still. They think they'll be able to work with me until November. All I wanted to do at that point was say "I quit and I want an exit interview" But I couldn't...I must attempt to find a better/differen job before pulling that stunt.
I have so much I wish to say in this blog, however considering this is public I should probably wait until a later date to say my real thoughts :) Until then....you can find me in the office!

(SIDE NOTE:....if you have a career (male/female) take responsibility of your actions, don't lie or blame others....with that said, I'd like to make it clear that if you're in healthcare you MUST ask the charge nurse if you can leave, come early or do anything. I DO THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111
