Good morning, folks! How are you all doing this morning? It's the weekend! Who's working, and who is off? Anyone? Drop a line!

LOL, in nursing & especially the Army Nurse Corps you have to be flexible... and sometimes for the better.
My Head Nurse called me the other day & asked me [probably more like an involuntary request, if you know what I mean] if I would not mind working 3p-11p Friday & Saturday with Sunday off, rather than my scheduled 7a-7p Fri, Sat, Sun. After a pause, I replied yes ma'am I can do that [BTW, she is a Major in the ANC, as well as my Head Nurse]. She told me we are short staffed those time slots and needed coverage.
I know what you're talking about! My boss may be younger, and I may remember her as a floor nurse at one time, but if she asks me to do something (stay over, etc.), I usually will. :p
