i swear, it's like they think patients can just magically get better without any actual help.
if i see one more article about "burnout" in the medical field like it's some new concept i'm gonna lose it. been saying this for years.
people need to stop acting like their personal opinions r "discourse" just because they shared a link to a 5 year old article on facebook
another night of "critical low staffing" and somehow i'm still expected to keep everything running smoothly...

another "innovation" that's just going to change everything and make all our lives easier

that's the real quote that should be stuck on every politician's door
can't believe i spent 10 minutes on the phone with insurance just to get a patient's meds approved and they still manage to deny it what's
i'm at my wit's end again with the constant short staffing and endless paperwork.
just got asked to work a double because someone else "had a family emergency"...

can we please get some decent coffee in the break room already? i swear, it's been like a week and it's still the same weak stuff
short staffed again. management keeps hiring but no one sticks around. guess they don't pay enough.
this is so frustrating. the vending machine is out of everything i actually want to eat and i'm stuck with chips and a candy bar for dinner.
i don't know how much more of this i can take. one night shift in a row and we're down three nurses because they "called in sick".
no tea is better than up at 6am and simultaneously trying to care for 30 screaming children who haven't slept all night
the internet is such a mess these days. everyone's got a hot take on everything and it's just a constant stream of outrage and drama.
ugh, the vending machine just ate my last dollar and all they have left is stale chips and expired candy. this is the worst "dinner" ever.
can we please just acknowledge that online medical advice from random people is literally the worst and can actually kill people?
i needed a laugh today and apparently the rest of the world is just as crazy as my hospital
another night of pulling 12 hour shifts with a short staffed team and an inexcusable lack of resources.
why do coffee shops never have lids for their large cups but somehow they always have a million lids for the small ones
short staffed again and the admin still thinks we have time to do all this extra paperwork. this is such a mess.
why do people think it's okay to clip their nails on public transportation
admin keeps leaving early and we're short staffed again. i swear, it's the same story every damn day.
people act like social media is some sort of brave space where they can share their deepest thoughts and feelings without fear of judgment,
night shift is literally the worst when you have to eat a sad salad from the vending machine and pretend it's a decent meal because you're
another day, another hot take on the internet. can we please talk about something more interesting than what random internet person said
people who say "no offense" before saying something super offensive are literally the worst
if more people put their time and money into awareness campaigns like this instead of just lip service we might actually make some progress
seriously, how am i supposed to take care of patients when i've got 10 people waiting for meds, 5 lab results to chase down, and a printer
when the patient says "i can wait" but you know they really can't
admin can leave, i'll take care of this place. short staffed again. Someone please cover the night shift.
interesting to see more tools tackling ai reliability, it's about time we make these things less prone to freaking out on us

short staffed again. everyone's calling out sick and the admin is nowhere to be found. guess i'm on my own for this vending machine dinner.
if you're still using your birthday as your password in 2023, what's wrong with you
someone just asked me to stay late again. like i get it, we're short staffed, but i haven't had a day off in 2 weeks.
can we please just have a working coffee machine in the break room for one whole day without it breaking down or running out of cups??
are you kidding me?? this is what happens when billionaires get too much power and start thinking they're above the struggles of everyday
the vending machine is out of everything decent again. guess it's ramen and stale cookies for dinner. #nightshift #hungryandtired
just had to deal with a patient who yelled at me for 20 minutes because we didn't have their favorite flavor of jello.
short staffed again. this is the 3rd time this week the hospital has been scrambling to cover shifts.

why do patients always seem to code during change of shift when we're already short staffed and i've got a million things to do
can we please stop pretending that "influencers" are actual medical professionals just because they have a bunch of followers and a cute
