It appears that the irritation about the You Are In America, Speak English book is continuing. I find it difficult to believe the Emergency Room Department is choosing to continually work short. All over an opinion. It remains somewhat concerning that certain people in "power" opt to flex their perverbial muscle over something as trivial as this. And, that it is supported by the "higher-ups". Even though this DNR (Do Not Return) was not officially documented, it still is siliently honored, by allowing them to work short when there is staff available.
I have recently been cancelled at about a 25% rate only to learn that the ER remains short on those dates. Where is America going? Short of legal action, I am finding this battle to be an up hill march. I want to make a statement about the injustice of it all, but wish to remain employable. I still need to work, damn it!
What my secret desires are.... is to put this book in every break room! Every waiting room! EVERYWHERE! If it is going to cost me my profession, I may as well as REALLY give them cause to be Pissed Off, don't you think? Hell, can anyone transcribe it into Spanish for me?
Thank you to everyone who has commented! I really appreciate it. It gives me energy. I have my waining moments. I sometimes get intimidated by the thought of not being able to work. Although, I think that in a round about way I am still being punished for my opinions. I cannot let them win! I cannot let them win! Just for extra energy, I have to say it....
You Are In America, SPEAK ENGLISH!
