                Don’t you wish that just once somebody could do their job right? When you go into work and everything is in the right place, rooms are clean and hope to god that all of the residents have gotten the adequate care that they deserve? And that maybe just once the ones that suck at their job get reamed out by the supervisor!?

                Well I do! All of the above, every time I go into work. There’s this same person that I get report from every shift I work. The same lazy, overweight, smells like a big armpit, man that supposedly takes care of my sweet, sweet little old people who I dearly care about and he can’t even take a shower and put deodorant on himself for gosh sakes. Well I’d had enough when I found my little “grandmother” lying in bed with her pajamas still on (the ones I had put on her the night before) and soaking wet. I marched down there to where he was gabbing about himself to this person who probably for one doesn’t even understand what the heck he is talking about, but that’s just what he does best, talk, talk, talk. That explains why his work never gets done! I took him to the side and I said “Look, there is no gosh darn reason in this world as to why grammy is still in her pajama’s at 3 o’clock in the afternoon, and further more she’s soaking wet along with all of the other residents I just checked!” He explains “well she said she didn’t want to get up and she refused my care” (f.y.i. she doesn’t talk and doesn’t refuse anyone’s care) I said “You have two choices here, either you go down there and you get her cleaned up and dressed and also go and get all of the dishes, trash and linen out of the rooms, OR you don’t and I go get the supervisor and most indefinitely get your ass fired”.

                Let’s just say he went through his rooms again and he didn’t get fired, but now every time I go into work he knows I’m coming and everything is much better. Things are picked up and it looks like he actually has done something. The one thing that hasn’t changed is his B.O. is disgustingly worse, but the whole point was that the residents, that I am half the time responsible for get the proper care they deserve. Check and mate!
