Thoughts… frustrations… humm

Today I worked… oh yes by the way people work on holidays & weekends in the hospital… NEWS FLASH to all… sick people are NOT just sick Monday thru Friday 9-5…. It’s kind of a constant around the clock kind of thing. BUT why is it people are so ignorant to the fact that working weekends, holidays, days that end in y’s is such a hard concept to gather??? Most people have common sense, oh wait… that hasn’t been proven yet… I take it back. So I have realized my frustrations with people.
This will be my rant of the day….
Nurses have a freaking hard-ass job. We deal with the defective, sick, weak, pitifull and dying. Most of the situations I deal with on a daily basis, as well as my co-workers (who rock!) deal with people in a major crisis. Let me help put this in the best… CRISIS as defined on dictionary.com reads:
1. a condition of instability or danger, as in social, economic, political, or international affairs, leading to a decisive change.
2. a dramatic emotional or circumstantial upheaval in a person's life.
3. Medicine/Medical.
a. the point in the course of a serious disease at which a decisive change occurs, leading either to recovery or to death.
b. the change itself.


Anyways- My point is that my job is hard (and rewarding)… But it is IMPORTANT. To me and to the people that I get to help that are in a crisis. …. SO stop acting like I am bothering/interrupting everyone elses ‘busy’ 9-5… or mommy-only schedule because I work 40+hours a week (nights/days/weekends and holidays) MY question is… “Is it my job to fit into your schedule… or your’s to attempt to facilitate mine???“ AND really- if you wanted me to be involved/at things… shouldn’t you ATTEMPT to check my schedule PRIOR to planning????????????????
In life I believe that actions speak louder than words, and if you do something that speaks for itself… then it takes a significant amount of words(&time) to take back your actions that were louder & clearer than your words.
What a bunch of words to digest. Perhaps you have all caught me on a bad moment. Perhaps you caught me on an HONEST moment.
THOUGHTS… by kira

deep thoughts.... or lack there of

So today I thought that I would enligthen the blog-o-sphere with my 4am night shift thoughts.
They are simple and true...
if you like to be blue.
so many of you know of my place of employment,
where i get so much enjoyment.
Although it may be hard
most of my coworkers think I am a 'tard'
I deal with stress and death
and also deal with Meth.
But overall... i would say I am not so stressed
it seems lately i have been doing my best.
I miss my man oh so much
oops, I think i might have missed my lunch.
So when you read this nifty poem
realize at 4am, i was not alone.


HA HA HA... i am trying to be more keen
so all you bloggin' ladies will relax your lean!
