Informal letters...

I have often wondered if someone really told management about what they thought of them in a letter of resignation what it would be like or what it would sound like. I played with this a bit and wrote this about 1 month ago. I put some thought into it, I put myself into the place of one of those employees who gets ticked off by everything and don't care who hears them yelling or ranting about it. So here goes, it is kind of in poem form.



Attention Management:
  • Attention Management, I won't be coming back to on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday or EVER!
  • Attention Management, I have had enough of your micro management
  • Attention Management, I am not working for the pennies a day anymore!
  • Attention Management, I love the way each year you raise my insurance and cut the benefits
  • Attention Management: I love the way our pay is below the National Average!
  • Attention Management: Just because I don't see you doesn't mean you can't leave a note saying you appreciate me.
  • Attention Management: I love seeing your budget and profits in the papers, at least the money is going into someone's pocket.
  • Attention Management: I won't be available to work any Holidays, Family reunions, and other days you always want to schedule me for.
  • Attention Management: I refuse to work anymore holidays on regular pay.
  • Attention Management: My new job pays me on regular time what it took me overtime to accomplish here.
  • Attention Management: Thanks for the wonderful equipment, which keeps you from being sued by the insurance company.
  • Attention Management: Don't call me when you refused to hire extra staff.
  • Attention Management: I really appreciate how you schedule training when I am not available, then complain when I miss it.
  • Attention Management: Thanks for deducting that "lunch" from my check when I don't get to take it.
  • Attention Management: Thanks for the uniforms you gave me when I started (that one set) and then charged me marked up costs for the rest
  • Attention Management: Thanks for giving me a job which pays below the poverty level, so I can obtain food stamps and Medicaid
  • Attention Management: Thanks for pushing me into depression , then not having insurance coverage for psychiatric treatments
  • Attention Management: Thanks for turning down my vacation request every time, now you have to pay for 3 months of vacation.
  • Attention Management: Thanks for meeting the federal guidelines, that we know we won't be using unless "they" ask.
  • Attention Management: Thanks for paying me, considering I was able to keep my pay to work ration equal by sleeping 2-3 hours per shift
  • Attention Management: I saw the papers showing your salaries, Nice to know you share the wealth, considering you do less work.
  • Attention Management: You have the only business of this sort here, but that doesn't mean I can't go elsewhere.
  • Attention Management: I am happy to inform you that I have found that McDonald's employees have better benefits, at a cheaper price and make more yearly then I do. Congratulations!
  • Attention Management: Find another sucker. SO Long... You are going to miss me when I'm GONE!

Days back

I wrote this several days ago, maybe weeks, I am behind putting them up so there might be several days blasted with updates and blogs which are longer. When did I book the trip on this insane train? I was enjoying some computer games when I heard some thunder . Shortly after that it began to rain, I mean POUR! I am hearing radio traffic like crazy, police, city crews, sheriff's department, Department of Transportation, WATER IS EVERYWHERE, and the highways are even impassable and are close to traffic. 1 hour later, I get a call from work, They need me in for a transfer of a critical patient, and we are taking a nurse. I tell them I will do my best to get there. My street has a few places where water is running over the road, I go a few blocks and then find more water. I have never seen this much water standing and moving, at least not here! There is a stress you have to deal with in this situation, you have to worry your vehicle will be carried by the water as you go through the wa...

The LZ

ATV's can be dangerous, as I have found out through a few calls. We are dispatched for an ATV accident, we go to the location, which is a few miles from the road. My partner takes off and goes down, while I get the truck turned around and try to get things setup for her. She calls back for me to radio for a helicopter. In just a few minutes she knew we needed a chopper. I called for a chopper telling dispatch to go ahead and dispatch a rescue crew to setup an LZ for us, since the fire department was already on scene with us assisting. The male was riding with a young girl on the back, they had went down into a creek, and then on the way out, the four wheeler front end lifted up, he was able to throw the younger girl off, but he wasn't able to clear himself from the path, as it fell backwards onto him. He was partially in the creek and underneath the large ATV. He was cold, and pale, he looked like he was dead, and his respirations were shallow, all the primary signs of...

Downward Spiral

The past month has started a rapid downward spiral, not totally on me.  I thought things were going good, we were almost to the point of being fully staffed, it was kind of exciting.  And then IT happened.  One of the rather new rookies had a bad day, I mean it was bad, but not terrible.  They fumbled, they struggled, but they made it out at the end of the day, as well as everyone they sent.  But they complained that it was a terrible day and they were not coming back.  The next day was a new day, they showed up.  They did the job they were paid to, the one they were hired for, and went on with the day like the day before had not been any issue.  Then it happened I was off and got a message to call in when I had a chance.  I called in and the supervisor informed me that the employee had quit and was no longer on the schedule so it would affect the entire schedule.  I was asked if I could take any other shifts, I reluctantly drudged thr...
