I charge it to sick time. If I accomplish something, I charge it to the code baes in what it should have taken not what it did take due the fuzzy head.

This post honestly gets to the core of the issue with public accounting and time as the holy unit of measure. The winner of the rat race is the employee who can keep the client happy with work of a high enough quality while taking the longest to legitimately complete it. Cool system!

We have unlimited sick time but i need to get work done... so if I’m working but I’m being slow/foggy I guess I just wasn’t sure how to split time. Thanks to those who gave advice.

I charge what it takes me. If a manager asks me to do something while I am on vacation, and it takes me five hours instead of one- boom. Hitting the code for five hours

I always just charge half my time when that happens and my other half to sick time.

You don’t.

Any advice on how to tastefully tell your manager that you no longer want to be a charge nurse anymore? For us being in charge is having full assignment 3p-7p & being responsible for assigning pts , communicating w/ supervisor about various issues, making the assignment for next shift, and a mini report about each pt for the next charge. On the weekends, same responsibilities but 7a-7p. We don't get any additional pay for being in charge and I'm sick of the added responsibility and stress of it.

My school deliberately cut the number of classes that the specials teachers teach so that we could be building subs for quarantined and sick teachers (we are hybrid). So... I teach fewer classes (which is a relief because specials teachers teach way more classes than core teachers normally) but I'm pulled for most of my planning periods to babysit classes. I need my planning periods so I can redo my ENTIRE curriculum... and I just feel unappreciated, used, and nothing more than a babysitter.
