The new math

Manglement sure hasn't figured out how to do math, although they are really good at subtraction and negative numbers.

Here's how.

If you say you need to save money and "rightsize", why are you hiring, not one, but two administrative "management team leaders" who cost nearly $200,000?

If you let nurses leave units, don't hire anyone to replace them, then have a couple die, retire, or just plain quit, you will start to have negative staffing patterns.

And finally, if you nitpick every single solitary person who knows how to do their job, and scrutinize every second of extra time they put in when their management says "do it", they can and will subtract themselves from your department.

You have it folks, the new Manglement math.
