Lazy techs. I don't understand lazy mentality. I see employees, techs routinely, engage in this thing, this sort of mentality, this sort of behavior that says, 'I'm going to see how much work I won't do today'.
Today I'm working with the same 3, horrible, train wreck patients I've had all week. They are really heavy. I'm on my feet all day, barely get time to eat, and usually open charts late in the afternoon because of the acuity.
There is a tech on the floor. I'm assuming she is a tech on the floor. Come to find out she is our Unit Sec. WE DON'T NEED A US. WE NEED HELP ON THE FLOOR. Okay, anyway I find this out around 9:30 am when I ask where the temps are. The tech, excuse me...the Unit Sec., tells me she is not doing tech work today because she is the unit secretary.
I'm dumbfounded. I ask her what she is doing as our unit sec. besides looking at the schedule for the past two hours. I mean, I don't see her filling charts, checking for labs, stocking carts or anything. What I have seen her do is eat breakfast, talk with her husband on the phone, fool around on the Internet, and look over the schedule. That's what I've noticed.
I was so pissed. I couldn't even talk with her for the rest of my shift. How can someone sit there and watch all of us nurses work like dogs and not lift a finger? No self respect? No sense of team? No clue what this job is all about? We don't need a unit secretary in the HOU. We need assistance on the floor. If they won't supply both, a unit sec. and a tech, then just give us a tech. Don't insult us by paying someone to sit there and look refreshingly, stress free, making some easy money while the nurses are barely able to keep heads above water. Fuckers.
