(no subject)
I find this a wee bit amusing, in a shadenfreude kind of way. Last December, the hospital administration decided they were going to eliminate cashing out ETO starting this year. I get 300 hours for the year, tho I just was reminded that having worked here five years, I should get 310. Days off when the clinic is closed apparently subtracts from my ETO too, though. Well, no cashing out means I am actually taking vacation days. So I took off for holidays when Maddy was out of school, for doctor appointments, and for next week's vacation bible school for Maddy.
Apparently, the clinic director says I'm running out of ETO.
*snort* I've never spent all 300h before, so I didn't keep as close track. He tallied it up as 277, but he didn't add in the rest of the year yet, and he was told that hours don't clock over partway through December the way they have in the past. Which is bullshit, because because beginning December 7 last year, 2015 hours were deducted. If somehow they don't clock over? Suddenly I'll call in sick or something. Because I already learned the hard way that busting my ass for the clinic does absolutely nothing. I don't get bonuses, I don't get any recognition for it, I just get tired and miss out on being with my family.
Whatever. The upshot is, I am NOT coming in to work part days next week. I already don't really take off in September or October AT ALL because of the back to school crunch ("I know better" is how I usually put it) and the next days off I put in for were Thanksgiving, in case we go visit cousins. Then I'll need Christmas break. I'm working on my birthday this year.
So you know what, administration? This is what you get when we have no incentive to keep working. I'm taking all my time off that is due to me before I lose it. And you can suck it.
ETA: Ah. Got clarification. With the days I'm taking off this month, I will be completely out of time off and can't take off in September on. Last December's time off is still being counted, and this year it's going to reset as of January 1. According to their accounting, I can't take off for Thanksgiving or Christmas this year.
I'm not going to reply yet to that e-mail, because my initial instinct is to say "Fuck you, I'm taking off anyway." Which would be unpaid, most likely, and I need my paycheck to cover the myriad bills we have.
Administration is just bullshit sometimes.
