Yes they do. Did you know, in healthcare, they can do this with all the nurses in more than half the states? It’s about whether or not your state has rules against it. The ones who have restricted it recognize how dangerous it is for patient safety. Kids have died because of errors made in these scenarios. And that’s just the publicized court case stuff. I’m sure grandma, with a no CPR choice logged in her chart, gets swept under the rug or not noticed as an aberration.

Hospital administration is cheap so they’ll use it as a standard staffing strategy rather than call an outside, more expensive agency, to fill in, when the state lets them.

These are usually the same states that do not have lunch break laws.

So you can get a nurse: post-surgical, ICU, ER, or elsewhere who hasn’t slept in 24hrs. Hasn’t eaten anything in 15hrs. Maybe longer, because these people have kids and go to class. There’s no sleeping between call lights, they have to be attentive for the duration.

They’re tapped on the shoulder about an hour or two before shift end and told they’re staying. On penalty of abandonment on their license.

Idk about you, but I can’t read words at about 18hrs. Working tired is like working drunk. This is scary.

That’s what I want when I’ve been in a bad car accident and need to be hospitalized. My safety in the hands of one person who is in their 21st hour awake and hasn’t eaten for 10-12hrs because nothing that sells food is open at night, including the hospital cafeteria. Even the food prep crowd is screwed on this one.

Another fun fact. At night, hospitals run with a skeleton crew of docs. Normally, this is fine. You have competent help, read: nurses, who can see and predict the patient having problems and can then call the doc, or page an emergency overhead and get even more people for the patient. Enter mandatory overtime nurse. How well is he going to do on this while essentially working drunk?

But hey, if it saves corporate a buck then it’s worth playing this game of Russian roulette, amiright?

Fuck. Don’t give corporate America ideas. It’ll be the next shit spun through this travesty of a Supreme Court.

I’m guessing the nurse community probably has some outlandish stories to tell here.

Dammit, no. It needs to be a live squirrel not a knick knack.

I’m so disappointed.

And there’s no link to tap to figure out those logistics.

A more militarily active Iran is never a good thing.

Young adults are robbed of the American Dream: that if they work hard they can get ahead and live decently.

Seeing a future with little to no prospects, well, how is this outcome surprising?

You can feel the love when you play their games. I’m old. I remember Baldurs Gate, Icewind Dale. Neverwinter Nights when it first hit, how big it was, how large the following was.

Playing Divinity OS was the first game in a while that had a love of RPG feels to it of yore. No surprise that they landed BG3.

Also a bit how working in the office instead of from home looks like.

Looks about right.

For a while Google had the roadmaps to the property right but not Apple. Using your eyes it was easy. Following the app blindly, not so much.

Found a box at the back of the property clearly tossed over the back fence, no where even visible from the house. Compliments of UPS.

Sex appeal in a name, so to speak. That’s it. That’s the answer.
