Cant believe so many are attacking the guy who said to get a different job.
Sometimes, thats how it is. I dont like my current job much anymore so Im getting an education and (hopefully) leaving when Im done next year.
I thought that was what people generally did when they dont like their job. \_()_/
Probably because it's a very stupid response and reeks of obtuseness
It's not stupid at all. Thats part of the job. Its unfortunate. But its pretty simple to understand.
It's also pretty simple to understand that that doesn't justify employees not being able to defend themselves from clearly dangerous situations.
"It's part of the job" is such a stupid response. As if no work procedure in the entire world has ever changed as a result of shitty things happening
I'm talking about the topic title, and not the procedures of the hospital. If you're being attacked and you push someone off of you, you shouldn't be suspended. However when you enter a volatile environment like a hospital, with random people coming in and out, who have varying degrees of mental stability, you should know what the realities of the situation are before ever accepting the job. Should you have to deal with crazy, violent people at work? No. But I'm sure cops would love to not deal with criminals who shoot at them too.
