1) New icon journal here on DW seedypomegranate join if you want to. Still will post on LJ.

2) Now I completely have cold feet about this new job. I don't want another job, I want to stick it out where I am. I do a good job, I know I do. She seems to like me. And this bullshit is bound to happen at this other nursing home too. If I leave who is going to hold my wing together? I hate to sound like I have a big head but I am the backbone for that wing and I would hate to see it fall apart.

3) Roommate and I got into a huge fight last night. We have a garage sale on Saturday, fine right? Right. But while she was moving things around last night she hit the sensor on the overhead door so when I opened the door when I got home something shorted out and the door wouldn't go back down. She came out and started swearing at me! And not just under her breath, really hurtful things. I already have enough stress in my life I don't need that. So instead of saying anything I went for a walk at midnight after we finally got the door closed. I sat by the pond that is across the street from me for 3 hours just sniveling. It was cold so I decided to go back and go to bed. She was still up *grumble* She wanted to apologize but I just walked right past her and went to my bedroom. She does this ALL the fricking time. She gets worked up, swears at me and then wants to say sorry. If there is anything in the world I hate it's getting swore at! I think it is the lowest insult you can do to someone you love. I got swore at all the time by my mother and as a result we have almost zero relationship. I don't want this with my roommate but it's getting to that point. I felt like such a baby last night tearing up but I've had about enough this week that I can handle.

4) This second challenge on COS sounds to be right up my alley! I will participate I do believe :D

1) Just noticed that Last.fm was a bit different. Since when did they add the panning photo's of the artists? I don't know, I think it's a bit frivolous!

2) Work was just HORRIBLE yesterday. If was a more emotional person I would have been in a fit of tears the whole time. I come onto the floor at and I see that there are like 15 call lights going. That is ALOT! I ask where the day shift aides are and why are they not answering the lights. I was informed by the nurse in the shift ahead of me that one aide (we'll call her Aide A) had worked all day then went on a 15 minute break outside for a smoke. Now this is against our work policy but it isn't a rule that is essential. You know what I'm saying? Anyway she returns from her 15 and the DON is waiting at the time clock for her and calls her into her office. Now I could completely understand if you're caught doing this to be reprimanded a bit but the bitch DON fired her!! For going outside on one of her breaks! Everyone was kind of mad about Aide A getting the boot but nobody said anything until the Staff Coordinator came down the hall and while discussing the events that just happened she let it out that the DON, RN Manager and Administrator knew yesterday that they were going to fire her. So they let her work ALL day then pull her into the office over some stupid shit and fire her. They is the lowest thing they could do in my opinion. So the other Aide that was on duty (Aide B) was working alone after the other aide got fired. It's hard work managing all those residents by yourself. Im sure she ran her ass off but around 1pm I guess she went to the bathroom quick. She comes out of the bathroom and again, there is "the bitch" She pulls Aide B into the office and belittles her that she shouldn't have gone to the bathroom because that leaves no one on the floor and how irresponsible that was and she mentions if she ever catches her going on break outside she will go the same way as Aide A. First off that is unprofessional to even mention that and 2) Aide B doesn't even smoke! Aide B tried to explain that and the bitch said "I don't have time for your sniveling" (this I heard, the rest is second hand from the day nurse) Aide B said "You know what, take this goddamn job and shove it." I wanted to applaud but I didn't dare say a thing. So day's are out of two of the best aides we had because the DON bitch feels like she needs to prove herself. I am so frustrated with that place these days. I just dread going to work. I am actually looking at applying at another nursing home on the other side of town. It's a bit of a hell hole but at least you don't get belittled :\

Sorry for ranting
