SHIFT WORK! WORK/LIFE BALANCE.. Depending on which department you may work in your shift constantly changes. The last department I was in we rotated shifts every week. 1 week of days, then evenings and then grave yard. I knew what I was getting into when I applied but the OT board is what kills you. It's easy enough, if you want OT then you sign the board and if you don't then you don't sign. However there is a accumulative point system that records the number of OT hours offered vs worked. So if no one signs the board whoever has the lowest # of worked hours has to do it regardless of whatever plans you may have for when you get off work. You don't find out if you have to work until your 1/2 way through the shift. It's hard to plan things when your not sure if you will have to work or not. Also they have a point system in regards to punishment. The system escalates from 1-5. No big deal. However one of the most insane things I've ever encountered is being punished for being sick. If you call in sick you get a point for missing the day. But if you stay out 3 days and come in with a DR's note there's no punishment. I just don't get it.

Behind in technology, many antiquated software applications still being used.
