kns57 - 2008-03-05 4:54 PM Hello Pam, Jen, Cat & Judi.  Hey Judi, why does your name have 4 letters and the others all have 3?  Whats up with that?  I guess I have 6 unles you shorten it, but I was never a Ken, always a Kennie, still 6.  LOL
guess it's because I refuse to answer to Judith and my sister got Sue (Suzanne)
Did you run or ride?
ride, the run will be when my lungs are fresher in the morning...the cats aren't allowed in my room because of my allergies so I have less exposure to allergens in the morning...It felt pretty good though.  Some coughing but no wheezing

Great! I like Sals idea of using your new HR monitor to stay in Z2 too!

guess that means I have to really read the booklet tonight so I know HOW to do it1

I have a Polar (or had before it stopped working) and it should be quite simple... wet the band, strap it on, hit a button on your watch and go run!

So there's hope of feeling better?  The TLC from the boss must have been a surprise.  Kind of nice that he recognized you know noone in the city apart from work and with your travels back and forth keep minimal food in the place.

The charge person who usually ticks me off was pretty good to me today.  The person who was supposed to relieve me thought she'd be late.  The charge person called her back and informed her she needed to let us know ASAP if that was the case because she'd have to call in the on call person since she didn't expect me to stay lat b/c of my being sick...my relief was on time...not too happy about it, but on time...

Yes, I am SOOOOOOOO ready to get out of there.  The latest thing is a series of mandatory meetings led by the RITZ Carlton--WTF does a HOTEL chain have to do with health care???  We're getting slammed, have constant additional pieces of paper to fill out, have to bend over backwards to kiss butt--only to be screwed while we're in that position and now we have to go to a MANDATORY 4 hour inservice on making our pt LOVE us (hmmph, they keep coming back don't they?)

you read that right...like I said, what does a hotel chain know about health care?  Would you expect a mechanic to know the programming on your computer?  NO Way, you would LAUGH your butt off if an auto mechanic tried to fix major computer issues (not car related ones).

It has most of us totally pissed off b/c they dropped these meetings on us AFTER the schedule had been filled out so we're all scrambling to go in for this thing on a day off and there are obvious child care issues and other considerations for the staff that they don't care about.  All 4 hospitals in this area have to go to ithis thing and the other day 300 extra (non registered) folks showed up--where are they putting everyone? And if the RItz is doing the presentation WHY is it at the Sheraton?

at this point it seems like it would be almost a relief to get out of actual patient care due to the external BS

although I'm sure you originally went into nursing because you wanted to take care of patients
