It's probably because you are drunk a lot, right? Maybe try to reread what you typed. I'd be concerned if you were taking care of me in a medical situation after reading that.

Imagine thinking this is something to brag about. If I bring my own lunch I always go to an area where I'm not at my desk to eat it. Eating at your desk is pathetic at best.

How was that bragging? I was complaining about the "break" being required.
But I fail to see how eating at your desk is pathetic, especially if the other option is sitting in an office break room

This is just a poorly composed OP.
Not being a dick but you’re all over the place. This is all over being told something for for to get water?
Good luck with your endeavors but do better posting.
Stop, read and revise before submitting.

When people start bitching and use “right to work” when they actually mean “at will employment” I pretty much ignore everything else they say since clearly they have no clue what they are talking about.



That’s how I feel when they start taking about their “Hostile Work Environment” because their boss rides their arse.

I will give you the same advice I give to everybody that moves here and then talks about how shitty it is. You can leave.

Who is taking care of your patients while you’re gone?


They take care of themselves.

Because.

quote:

What is your job?


Office/ consult/ outpatient/ interviews covering medical issues/history. Some interviews are phone assessments.

People I see face to face are appointments.

Telling me I can’t get a water or a coffee is like telling a barber he can’t walk next door for a cup of coffee while he waits for the next guy.

My bedside critical care days are over. You guys act like I am leaving “major room” patients in the ER. Not realizing that doing that was even easier. Nod to the charge nurse and say “coffee”. That was fine. The employee coffee pot was almost as far of a walk as the little in hospital cafe I am talking about.

You seem like the guy that comes in and takes a 30 minute bathroom break first thing.

Being told my morning trip to the on site cafe to buy a bottle of water. Talking the time it takes me to walk there, but the water, and walk back. 3-5 minutes. It was a “problem”. In my 30 plus years of work. High school and college knuckle head jobs to career. I’ve never been told something so foolish.


The reality of the current labor pool has not caught up to management yet. The reality is that a huge percentage of job candidates are trash. Micromanaging good, reliable, productive employees is completely asinine. They’ll either end up losing you to another job or they’ll fire you for something petty like getting water. However, they’ll end up sifting through hundreds of trash candidates and probably hire and fire your replacement multiple times before they find a quality replacement. At that point the cycle begins all over again because some dick head has got shite else to do but create problems over bottles of water… my personal response would have been I’m getting a bottle of water and if you continue to harass me about it, we’ll be sitting down with HR with a quickness. The message being that if you want to create problems, I’ll create some too. Being an a-hole (in a professional manner of course) has its place and you have to establish that you will not be run over by anyone.

That has not yet been established. All OP has done in this entire thread is avoid any semblance of accountability or self reflection.

Accountability? To you?

Ask me your questions.

I can’t recall if you’re the…..

Grammar nazi.

Hospital admin type.

Business owner type.

Office type and company man.

Ask and I’ll do my best to answer to your satisfaction.
