	Thyna's Wanderings If you know what a kender is, you will understand. If not, this is going to be a collection of random stuff depending on how I feel, the events of the day, web sites, personal interests, trinkets, collectables and stuff from my pockets :)

	This isn't good
	This isn't good


I have no idea what has been taking place at work. I don't remember there being so much stress. Maybe it is because we are currently one full time staff short and to get through this we are taking on more work. But there has to be more to it than that. Things have been really bad since I came back from that week of holidays. All that work that didn't get done, my co-worker getting fired because of the problem with the meds, my one client with Alzheimer's needing increasing care. The other is still having seizures (and he was doing so well). It is like the house is falling apart and all I can do is wonder...is it a curse or are we being sabotaged? One of my co-workers transfered into another position. Which is fine, but before she left she said the house was going to fall apart without her. We laughed because she is one of those people who thing they are so high and mighty and figured we would be fine. While work was in the process of finding us a 4th co-worker, I went on holidays and a second staff had family problems leaving the third. Now I don't really know what happened with the med order, but someone received it and didn't record or check it and the only full time staff on that day got blamed and fired. So for a couple of days we were down to 2 full times until our third wheel came, but we are still waiting on the 4th. But it just seems like anything that can go wrong has been. 2 other full times have been fired this month which puts a real strain on our short list of part times to cover, and since so many of them are new they are not fully trained to do a lot of the work. So full time have to take on more of the slack.... I have so much overtime on the books right now that I have to take time off or it gets paid out (and seriously messes up my taxes). When I first booked the days off they were just random days, but now with the stuff at work I am over whelmed and am kind of glad for the break, but it is at such a bad time that I've told my co-workers to call me if I am needed. Usually, I am pretty good at keeping my stress levels in check. But then I have never had to face anything this bad before. I know I will be able to work through this, but right now it sure doesn't feel like it. Thyna · Sat May 21, 2005 @ 01:12pm · 1 Comments

I'm feeling better today. Think I just needed the break.
Just time to get away and not have to fret about the stuff happening.
