employment issues.?

Work for a small community hosp. Hours are PRN. Recently was changed to 7 days straight 8 hr shifts. Asked if this would be clasified as FT. Was told no we only have 3 FT positions. But there are 4 shifts. I come in when ever there is an opening. Do not go home early. And have never said No I can not come in. Even with less then 30 min notice that I am needed. Well today I said no. I am suppose to be at work tomorrow A.M. (5 o'clock) But they wanted me to work till 11 this evening and then come back. Is it wrong to feel a little under appreciated from this company? And should I start sending out resumes? Is this turning into a dead end job?

    It sounds like they are taking advantage of you. You are their go-to person, because they know you wont say no. That way they dont have to bother looking for someone else. They also wont classify you as full-time so they dont have to give you extra benefits which is illegal. Start saying no more often, stand your ground and stand up for your rights as an employee. If you dont like the way you have been treated, I would start looking for other job options but if you stay dont let them walk all over you.

    7 days straight (52 weeks a year) is considered FT

    If they ask you to work 7 days straight occassionally

    that is not ft. You always have the option to say no

    and start looking if you want to.

    The amount of hours you're working, it's considered as full-time. They just don't want you to get benefits. I would start sending out resumes and going on interviews.

    In a perfect world, you'd have the full membership of your union enforcing your rights. Enough said.

    definitely sounds like it.

    If they dont recognize what kind of asset you have become, they will surely realize it once you are gone.
