Well, last night was the suckiest night that ever sucked. The whole place was a mess from the moment I walked in the door. The first thing I realized was that the help I was supposed to have from 3-7 had called in sick, leaving me there alone all night. Then I was told that the supervisor wasn't coming in until 6(this being the sustitute supervisor as my regular supervisor is on vacation). Then I found out we were getting two admissions. Also the phone rang practically non-stop from 3-7. My unit manager stayed late, but it was mostly to catch up on her own work and she's not all that helpful even when she's trying to be. Then of course, there had to be issues with doctors arguing about who was covering who for the weekend. And let's not forget the obligatory irritating family members. I didn't get out until 12:30.
Some cryptic comments were made by my unit manager that lead me to believe I may finally get moved to day shift(to fill the position now vacant following the mess with the narcotics). Either that or I'm getting fired. As I said they were pretty cryptic. Though I think we're bordering on illegal as far as staffing goes so I'm pretty secure in my job right now.
