"It's just business". More like it's just BULLSHIT!

"It's just business", don't take it personally is one of the fucking stupidest ideas ever! How the hell do you NOT take it personally. I'm talking about a co-worker who was fired from work d/t a pt.'s suicide attempt. Here's the deal... the "suits" in this motherfucker make all these rules that are impossible to follow (may sound good in theory) but if you don't work the floor or you're not acclimated to the job you're making rules for, what's the fucking point???? I'm tired of these shits thinking they're so AWARE & you know what, they don't really know shit. Take the Clinical Director. I figured this bitch out during my orientation. I thought she was a complete tool the second I laid eyes on her! It's frightening people of her caliber (shitty) is in a position of such decision making... Uuuugggghhhh! She was extremely unprofessional by her lack of time mgmt. skills & personally, she came off as a dumbass! It makes me want to seek my sociology/social work masters degree & actually give a damn about the folks I'm in charge of. What depresses me is it's all about the almighty dollar & fuck the people who are trying desperately to make ends meet. These folks are working 2 or 3 jobs (so am I) & upper managemet just up & fires said folks for the smallest offenses. The sad part is they make crucial decisions w/o getting all the facts & making a fair decision. Oh well, what goes around comes around, motherfuckers!!!! Back to the employee who was escorted out our building after the pt. guzzled about 15 oz. of cleaning fluid... I know it sounds like a logial solution to terminate the employee, but you must factor in the "suits" don't really allow staff to have hands on restraints w/ the pt's, our genius (ha!) CD thinks it's more effective to verbally de-esculate the boys. Now, this is foolish b/c the pt's need to have boundries & respect authority & how the fuck is this supposed to happen when you're trying to reason w/ a mentally challenged sex-offender????? Another fuck up on mgmt's plate is they're too concerned w/ the revenue, has cut back staff & staff's having to monitor more pt's than what's legal. When this happens, mistakes will happen. It's no secret this pt. has been suicidal, but he hasn't been transfered to the proper facility thanks, in part, to the shitty decisions made by mobile crisis & this facility's unwillingness to let go of the revenue this pt is filtering in, even though the program we offer is ineffective for the issues the pt's experiencing. I don't know what the solution is but the only thing I can control is me getting educated & doing the best damn job I can for society. I may be an ungracious, "hot-headed liberal" but I honestly give a shit about people!!!!! FUCK BUSINESS, IT IS PERSONAL, fuckhead!!!!
