I’ll mention one other thing before taking a break, as I mentioned in another thread…it’s different when you work in Hospital, on the front lines. We head into work everyday knowing very well that just about most of us are expected to catch this. I’m more scared that I may pass this on to my family. Some of you I’m sure think it’s a joke while you sit in your car, home office, reading the paper while retired in your cabin. Come spend 12-16 hrs a day in a hospital full of sick and dying people, hardly any beds, vents, and PPE for staff because idiots purchased all that crap.
Peace out and best of luck!
If only the general public understood what kind of stress direct patient care workers are going through right now. PPE shortage has been in the news, but most of it hasn’t. The difference in opinions between nurses who want the best for themselves and their patients and the hospital leaders who want whats best for their pockets and their end of the year bonuses. My respect for the hospital and organization I work for was already draining, but this is an all time low for me.
That said, everyone here will be affected in one way or another so I dont mean this to me a “why me” post. Whether its a loved one falling ill, losing a few paychecks or their job entirely.. everyone is going through a difficult time right now. If they aren’t, they’re oblivious to whats going on around them like I was for weeks.
