The problem with the so called boomerang kids is that they keep coming back to whats easiest, least costly to them and/or lets them not have to work. I was once young and thought I had all the answers to life's problems. As the years have gone by I have realized that I still don't know what to do most of the time. When a problem arrises I think my way through it, work my butt off to fix it or pay someone to make it work again. Yeah, its stressful sometimes and often it's not easy but its what you do when you have to. This generation is all about "me" and what I want. It's about getting others to pay for things because it just isn't fair that you have to go to school, actually read books, write papers, take tests and most importantly show up everyday on time. After several years of that you then have to go get an entry level job to pay your student loans and bills. It's just not fair that they can't have everything that we as grownups/parents have immediately and at no cost to them.
The tick asked to borrow something last night which on the face of it was no big deal. I asked if would be returned, when and where it would be returned to which they answered that night, to me, right here. When I asked about the spare set of keys to MY truck, they were on the significant others key ring. I did get the face I was looking for though and had better get the keys back ASAP or else...
More and more colleagues are questioning what we do and whom we do it for. I'm not talking about the patients as they always come first. I'm talking about the people who sign the paychecks. More of us are getting vocal and I feel it won't be long until the migration truly begins. The other day when I spoke with the nurse, she mentioned the COO walking by. She was in an area where entry is restricted due to infection precautions and needed something from outside the area. The resident Pope did not ask if she needed anything but did comment on it was nice to see her smile. That smile was in sarcasm to his believing everything is just fine. She told as much and he never missed a step as he went to address something administrative. I do hope they have purchased that book set as they will need it.
My co-worker returns today and I am extremely happy about that. Maybe today will go by smoothly, quickly and without any pain. HaHa.
