i went in to work today to get my paycheck and to turn in my shift coverage forms for the summer,
and my supervisors were all surprised that i managed to find people to cover for me.
it's not that am mad...exactly, but i'm really disturbed by them.
that's right, they disturb me.
it's one thing to be cautious when you're employees are irresponsible,
but it's a whole other story when they treat you like you're a flight risk
even though you have never called out sick, never been late, found coverage for every shift you couldn't work, covered when they called needing help, worked full time the previous summer, have been trained for almost everything,
it's really messed up and if it weren't for the hospital itself and my preceptor, i would be sooooo gone.
the sad thing is that i hadn't even realized all of this.
they talk to all of their employees like that, and i just kinda took it as a challenge.
but when i was telling john some of the things they've said, he was like,
that's really messed up that they don't give you the respect when you haven't done anything wrong.
and it's true, i never thought about that... it's messed up!
hopefully after seeing my packet of coverages and my color coded calendar,
they'll have a little more respect.

that felt really good.....

so, it's nice knowing that i won't be working my weekends for the next.... three months,
i decided that today was really the day to start cracking down for finals,
so i stopped by my local starbucks, grabbed a grande soy chai latte, and headed to the library
let's just say, i accomplished a great deal in those five hours...
1)i read last week's People... it's good to know that jen has a great friend like courtney during these rough times
2)i got through 3/4's of my virology lectures
3)i read half of The Reader...it was an oprah book club book, i was drawn in, perhaps because it was the next best alternative to virology (like dapsone is the next best alternative after bactrim for Pneumocystis jiroveci Pneumonia prophylaxis.)

i'd like to think that i got a very well rounded education this afternoon.
