Should I cut my loses and just top scrub/strip? Or is there another way?

So last night a resident's broke their bed and I guess the bed couldn't be lift up so that the bed frame could roll; The bed was on the lower level of the nursing home i work at. So apparently some dumb ass graveyard shift CNAs decided to push the broken bed all the way up the ramp to the upper hall (which is where I took the picture), leaving deep marks in their trail including these visible ones from what I assume are rubber stains. I tried push burnishing with a red pad and then I put another red one on the automatic burnisher and went over it but to no avail. I also got a black pad and scrubbed with hot water but no dice. Is there some trade secret available or should I just start preparing to strip the wax down?

Nuggets just waived Julian Reese after the trade. Thoughts?

Yeah, another "short" Center, but he's big and fights hard on the glass. From what little I've seen, I thought he did decently for a 2-way on the Wizards

Does anyone know how to get year old adhesive stains out of vct tile?

I'm a floor tech at a nursing home and last year a pipe sprung a leak in the ceiling above. The maintenance crew used some adhesive for the pipe but they carelessly did it with nothing to cover the floor and got some adhesive on the floor and it left a stain that been there for a lil over a year now. I used a floor finisher and a lil bit of strip and it helped a lil bit but the stain is still present. Anybody got any trade secrets?

My boss said I can't come early and sleep at my work place until it's time to clock in

I've been working at a nursing home for 4 years now as a Floor Technician. I used to be on 2nd shift but through some bullshit, I now been exclusively working first shift. The problem is that I don't drive and it's hard to find someone willing in the morning to drive me so I have to carpool with my mom cause her job's going towards the same way, but she has to clock in at 6 AM while I clock in at 7. So I have to get up at 5, get dressed by 5:30, and then I usually get dropped off around 5:40. Otherwise, I have to walk across town to get to work

​

I have few qualms about working mornings but I still arrive on time, even if I walk to work I can still be on time. However, I'm still tired and I wanna catch some sleep before I clock in. So I usually go into the computer learning room and take a nap for the last few months now, nobody cared. When i first started here, I worked mornings so I had another spot I slept in before clock in until they closed it off from employees, nobody cared then. Its not that I'm sleep-deprived, it's more of a "might as well!" thing. And if I may add, I always usually show up to work a hour or a half-hour before I clock in anyways and I don't even sleep. It's something I been doing way before even I started this job

​

I clocked in this morning and my department head starts chewing me out first thing for using my off time to sleep in a empty public room at a hour where it's not being used and most of the morning staff isn't here, including my bosses. She's telling me that since I'm here early, which is something I have no say in, I should clock in over a hour and half early and begin working. Like it's not my choice to be here this early so why should I have to work before everyone else in my department for no reason

​

I tried suggesting moving to another room like the employee break room or putting me back on 2nd shift but my department head is adamant on keeping me on first so that she can have me right under her wrinkly old thumb and the worst part is that there's another fully capable person on first that could be handling 1st shift on his own yet we both are constantly stepping on each other's toes finding stuff to keep busy on an eight hour shift.

​

I was going to have a discussion with the big boss later today but I'm beyond not having the energy to be patronized and dismissed so I thinking about calling it quits. Thoughts?
