Come on sack me

They will be talking about me my bad temper at work. Its deliberate through I am tired of working with some of the slack self promoters in that place. Whole reports consist of what they didnt do and could you do it. Sometimes you want to ask them what exactly did you do all day. Anyway I unloaded on one of them. Then the girl in charge tells me she is giving me the new lady, there wont be anything to do she says. I said no I'm not having her, I've got too much to do now, she thinks I'm kidding and makes a joke, I said I am serious I am not looking after 6 people when 2 of you have 4. Oh she says I'll take her, good I said. Then she is still trying to off load her on me with comments like I haven't got to that lady yet while she is sitting at the desk. I don't reply. You start to realize there are two brands of nurse the guilty (me) who (used to) run all shift and feel they never do enough and the exploiters who use your guilt to off load their work. When I was younger I didn't worry about it just ran around but too old to do extra. 

She finally went to check on her and the girl was bleeding so needed a catheter in and an IV with synto, the second post partum hemorrhage that shift. 

One of the other ladies I was looking after was waiting to go to theatre, complications after a cancer op I wanted to say to her why didnt you go back to your original surgeon not to our crap hospital but you cant say that. Pity. 

I was angry too before because it occurred to me that we were never going to be a midwifery ward again unless we are flat out with new mums we are going to be the overflow ward for the rest of the hospital and every-time we have an empty bed an ADON will be trawling to place for someone to dump on us. That the patients are getting sicker and more worrying and we  dont have the experience, equipment or medical back up to deal with them. 

I said that to one of the girls she said no it will get busy with babies again and then we wont be able to take generals. I said I think they will be sending the Mums home quicker, they've been off studying another hospital with a faster turn around than ours????? we cant figure how they do that unless they just show them the door of the ward and push them out on the street.
