& Fliss my x-super

[Guest guest]

I wrote this long response to you earlier and my computer farted or

something and I lost the whole thing. It was probably too verbose

anyway. I'm with you 100% on the need for common decentancy and

courtesy. Maybe I am just too much an old southern belle but I

could never be mean and nasty to someone I haven't slept

with...haha.

I dont understand your neighbor/secretary one bit. There is a nurse

that I worked with who wont even speak to me. You wouldl think that

I have been summering in the south of France with her footing the

bill the way she has carried on. Yeah I loved spending all my

vacation time being cut from stem to stern, not to mention all the

wonderful drains and tubes. Having a BLAST aren't we! And nurses

are supposed to be compassionate. I wouldn't want a nurse like

her.

I did call down to personnell yesterday afternoon because I needed

to know what I HAD to do to fix this situation and exactly what the

situation is. I spoke to a very nice man and told him my story. He

asked me some questions and I told him more of the story. He pulled

up my personnell record, saw absolutely nothing but good reviews,

changed my status to something like, immediate rehire upon

application. Or something along those lines.

I asked him if it was an issue with the dept that I did not fullfill

the exit protocol obligations. He said that he had absolutely no

issues with my behavior but had some very serious issues with my

nurse manager. He told me if I had any problems with the rehire to

contact him personnally, and gave me the number to his direct line.

As it turned out, the guy who just happened to answer the phone when

I called, who just happened to hear my story, who just happened to

answer my q's, is the legal director of Human Resourses and

Personnell; or something along those lines. This very nice man just

happens to be the absolutly perfect person for me to contact about

this very thing!! Is that not a hoot or what!! I would love to see

the look on Pats face when she hears from him!! OK, OK, I shouldn't

get too happy. The most important thing is that I have a clear

record and no problems coming back to work when I am well enough to

do so. But still, I hope he nails her to the wall.

I hope ya'll are feeling ok. I am very worn out, yesterday was a

lot. I also went to a retirement walk in for an old friend while I

was at the hosp. It turned out to be also a ceremony for

professional recognition. MUSC is huge with well over 10K employees

hospital wide. I walked into the crowd saw some familiar faces, and

a friend came up to congratulate me. I said for what, she said my

name was called for recognition of my publication in that book,

thats in its 3rd printing now by the way. Talk about funny, I'm

argueing with this woman saying " No! Thats not Me! No Way!! " and my

super was there, I avoided her but funny how she heard my name

called but I did not. Her name didn't get called..hehe. There were

100's recognized so its not that big a deal, just like the timing.

Fliss I have marked the date of your EUS on my calendar. Did you

talk with them about the anesthesia? Thats very important that you

know exactly how they plan to sedate you. Its also very important

for the anes personnel to know your needs as well. I am 100% t-

totally for complete gen anes for these procedures. I have had them

done both ways, and I want my behind knocked out. Its better all

around for the pts and the staff. Be sure to talk with them soon.

Love Chrissy
