Hello! Recently, our hospital has significantly cut our staff’s hours, artificially creating a nursing shortage, blaming us for call outs, and then on top of that, forcing us to pick up other department’s responsibilities.

Every time we push back, they say “Don’t you want what’s best for our patients? Because if you don’t do XYZ, the patients will suffer delay of care.” I’m tempted to say that this is a fucking job, not the fucking compassion Olympics, but I don’t know how to say it without getting written up by HR. Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Signed, a fucking burnt out nurse.
