Ok-- So, I work at a nursing home. I take care of resident's needs, be it issues with toileting, or just wanting something to drink, or the channel changed, or whatever.
I work 3rd shift.
-----That out of the way.
We generate a lot of trash. A LOT of trash. Like, a big leaf-bag sized bag of trash, PER HALL, PER SHIFT. Naturally, we go through trash bags like they are going out of style.
We have a room we keep the boxes of these in. (Yes, BOXES.) The powers that be, also have designated this room as the housekeeping office. Housekeeping, in their infinite wisdom, has taken to locking this room, and not leaving the key. Oh yeah, the big bottles of water for the Culligan machine are also stored in there.
Did I also mention that they dont stock our soiled linen rooms with bags, and that we have to stock them ourselves? Did I mention that other shifts cant be fucking arsed to stock so much as a box of kleenex? (I have politely showed each and every one of my co-workers on the other two shifts *EXACTLY* where the damn things are kept. I have asked politely that they stock the soiled linen rooms if they run out on their shift. I have even made the other shifts aware of houskeeping's sudden interest in being control freak asshats about the damn key. Does it make a lick of difference?! FUCK NO!)
Yeah. That.
THIS IS DAY FUCKING THREE, NO GOD-DAMNED TRASH LINERS. At the rate we use them, and the rate I am having to steal them from other soiled linen rooms, we will be COMPLETELY OUT OF BAGS in 2 more days.
Have I brought this to the attention of my charge nurse? Yes.
Has anything been done about this? NO.
Is this the first time this has happened? **NO**
Is this making me seriously fucking livid, because pretty soon I will be up to my goddam eyeballs in dirty incontinence products, because some fucking bitch cant leave a copy of her fucking key, because of control-freak issues? YES-- YES IT FUCKING IS.
Oh yeah-- the woman doesn't do a good job of housekeeping either. Residents are routinely out of toilet paper in their dispensers, out of paper towels, have filthy dirty toilets, dust fucking everywhere--- You get the idea. Rather than allow people to stock residents with the stuff they need, (Because she isn't fucking doing it, even though this is totally in her responsibility list!) the woman locks the damn door instead.
I am tired of being ignored about this problem. At this rate, I am going to duplicate every damn key in the facility, and carry them illicitly on my own damn keyring. By hook or by crook, I will get a copy of that woman's keys. (There are other janitorial people, and all I need is a couple of good photos. I have a 3D printer, and plenty of motivation. I will print a key, take it to a DIY duplication place, and cut a duplicate from the print.) Then she can lock that door to her lazy bitch heart's content.
