I almost didn't bump this because it reminded me so much of prunetacos, but I thought the topic was so relevant I bumped it anyway.

Unfortunately, I agree with this. And I say 'unfortunately' because I'm afraid she's going to use her instability as a defense.

My degree just came in the mail Saturday.  Can I be included in the thread now that my Master's is official? Come on, I talk to myself and everything, someone throw me out there!

Wow, I wish I could've worked where you worked. I didn't trust my co-workers worth a lick and for good reason. I was left alone on the units ALL the time but we were always so short-staffed it was often avoidable. The budget cuts to the mental health system are wreaking havoc on staffing. After a "situation," there was never a debriefing afterward, we all went back to our posts because there just wasn't enough staff to be gone longer than necessary. In fact, there was often not enough staff to come help with a code AT ALL, the two people left on the unit would have to fend for themselves. We reported that place because operating on a skeleton crew puts everyone in danger (we'd have increased staffing for awhile, then it'd dwindle again). While it was a great job, I'm very glad I'm not there anymore.

May we lay prunetacos to rest--he's too creepy for this to keep going.

This is anecdotal but the transparency of his lunacy is profound.

Aha. I knew that wording was purposeful but wasn't sure what you were up to. There it is.

My brother's ex-fiance would have graduated last June for her MBA. She was, in GC terms, "batshit crazy".
