In a very long time...

Thanks so much jo (Head Nurse) for your link to Boooo Cancer you suck.
Guess the rest of us will just have to wait for an a8%hole cure.
More later...TGIF!

RehabRN book club
After, I thought about working for an idiot recently I went searching for a few business books and grabbed these two:
The No Asshole Rule: Building a Civilized Workplace and Surviving One that Isn't by Robert I. Patton.
This is a nice, little book. If you read quickly, you'll breeze through it in an afternoon lounging. This book piqued my interest since the author was an academic for a while who wrote an article about workplace assholes for a large, conservative business periodical in which they would not use the A-word in the title. I found this quaint and hysterical at the same time.
The book has lots of facts, no figures, but a great story line we can all enjoy: they're out there, so learn to live with them (or learn to make them go away) or get out.
I also got Mobbing: Emotional Abuse in the American Workplace by Davenport, Schwartz and Elliott. It's also a shorter book, so I plan on reading that before I start my classes again and it's grad school nursing every time I want to read something.
More later, so stay tuned.
