Toxic work environment.Believe me, we've tried. $5 an hour wage increase, with a big sign advertising it out front, even. CNA isn't a fun job and retaining them is difficult, especially during the pandemic. You also have to be certified, a 3 week course (which we even PAY applicants to take, whether they stay with us or not). Unless they really mess up, we can't afford to lose anymore CNAs, even the ones with really poor attendance (my employer is a little too generous with sick days too, which doesn't help) they're the backbone that keeps the place going. The worst part is that the dependable CNAs that do show up then have to work mandated 12-16 hours to cover for the bad ones, barely get any sleep, then, they get burned out and quit too. If I had CNA certification, they'd be yanking me from my activities department to work the floor every day (they do have me feed during meal times, because I did get my optional certification for that), that's why one of my former co-workers quit, and, recently, our receptionist, one of our best and most valued employees. They kept pulling her to the floor, for weeks, to be a CNA, instead of doing her real desk job, that she left being a CNA for, and she finally had enough.
Lithy hire me at your brewery. I’ll mop the floor and take partial payment in flour, yeast, and dried grains or legumes.
You’re asking mercy of Lithy? Wow.
Based and good guy lithy-pilled.For whatever it is worth, at one point I offered to let LoneSage move into my basement and meant it at least to the somewhat tongue in cheek extent that I knew he would probably have a hundred better choices before living with me but I'd offer the same to almost any long time poster here.
It won't be pretty but if it's between that and homelessness, I'd give someone a couch to sleep on, why not.

I don't remember that offer anyway.

Fire them.My employer is finally doing a Covid booster shot clinic (residents on the 11th, the rest of us fooks on the 12th) and I filled out my consent form this morning. Hard to believe that about 30% of my co-workers still refuse to get vaccinated (99% of the residents are).
PM sent
Fire them.
These were the same people that worked in that facility all of 2020 with no vaccine while the white collars got to hang out at home and you're going to tell them they should be fired now? The arrogance.
Can't, the Union would have kittens and the fired employees would probably sue for discrimination too. We couldn't survive losing that large a chunk of employees at once anyway, especially being short-staffed as it is. Bizarrely, from my observations, LPNs and RNs make up the majority of the ones who refuse to get vaccinated.Fire them.
The info sheet they had at work today stated you're okay to get the booster if you were vaccinated 6+ months ago (I had both of my Moderna shots in January/February).I think I am eligible for a booster, but it’s only been 6 months since I got my 2nd shot. Am considering getting the booster before I’m unemployed.
Yes, they brought that shit into nursing homes and caused massive outbreaks.

over 100 years of vaccine mandate Supreme Court precedence says they would get fucked and owe legal fees.Can't, the Union would have kittens and the fired employees would probably sue for discrimination too.
But we also live in idiotic times of unprecedented butt hurt.over 100 years of vaccine mandate Supreme Court precedence says they would get fucked and owe legal fees.
Weakness is never mistaken for kindness.But we also live in idiotic times of unprecedented butt hurt.
The vaccines also don’t prevent the virus to the degree I think we’d like.
Again, massively arrogant thinking from you in your firm belief that just with enough control, with enough compliance, that you would be able to contain a highly transmissible respiratory disease.
In 2020 when there existed no vaccine this was inevitable.
Now there is a vaccine and it is largely preventable.
