r/ I Dont Work Here Lady - FIRED FROM HOSPITAL I DON'T WORK AT

welcome to our slash I don't work here lady where we share stories about folks that go into other businesses and have irate customers mistake them for employees and today's story is I got fired from a hospital that I don't work for so I just found out about this sub from someone who suggested I post my recent firing from the hospital I was admitted to I had a rather SH Memorial Day weekend long and rather boring story short I had a seizure and face-planted my bedroom door after a fun ride to the hospital on backboard and neck brace a whole bunch of tests followed and I was admitted because as it turns out my autoimmune condition isn't quite being as managed as well as I thought it was fun times after the first couple days sleeping off the concussion and Sh medication side effects I make it to the third day and feel well enough to walk around and even make a trip to the cafeteria downstairs to get something better than the standard hospital food now I didn't really have much in the way of clothing my wife brought my favorite hoodie and clean under things but forgot pants of all things so a really nice nurse scrounged up a pair of the hospital's blue scrub pants for me so I was happily free of the IV cart for the next few hours and decided to get some chocolate milk and maybe a tasty snack to treat myself and lift my spirits a bit but it ended up being a rather sad frustrating affair before I could even make it onto the elevator I'm pretty slow walking but I'm just content to not be confined to bed or tangled in tubes so I enjoy the sunlight and make friendly conversation with the day-shift nurses as I pass by sometimes it's the small things that make me happy but all that happiness goes away as I make it to the waiting area and elevator lobby when a 60-year old woman with the sourest expression on her face steps off the elevator like sucked on a whole barrel of lemons type of sour lips puckered up tighter than a cat's a-hole sour so I try to give her a wide berth but pucker face isn't having it she marches straight up to me and gets well into my personal space and starts demanding that I take her to her son's room and give her an immediate rundown of his medical ailments the exchange is as follows between me and pucker face pucker face finally one of you lazy B's is going to take me to my son's hospital room and explain to me my baby boy's condition I'm its mother after all and that wife of his just hasn't been taking care of him like she should be me thinking the Children's Hospital is next door what pucker face okay don't play stupid you're not pretty enough for that I know my son's here and I want to see him right this instant his name is poor B and I think he brought in on Friday me really confused and feeling bad for poor B uh I don't work here pucker face what do you mean you don't work here you have on scrubs in a hospital you're a nurse now take me to my son B me starting to get irritated and sassy dude I'm not a nurse not everyone who wears scrubs is a nurse I just didn't feel like going to the cafeteria in a gown with my a flapping in the wind pucker face waves hands as if that's magically going to make me not being a nurse change in any way you're just using that as an excuse to not get in trouble for sucking at your job and being a little a-hole me holds up wrists including the lovely bright red allergy band yeah no I'm not a nurse I'm a patient and I really don't have to be explaining this to you go find someone else who can help you but you should probably not be such a B about it pucker face inching so close I put my hands up to push your back out of the four remaining inches of personal space I will act however I want and you better believe I'm going to get you're lying a fired I want to speak to your supervisor such unprofessional behavior and talking back to a patient's family your bedside manner is atrocious me pointing to the growing crowd the head nurse is that way and for the last time I don't even work here I'm a deep patient just like poor B and being a deed of people especially nurses is a good way to get thrown out on your a by security so you might want to tone it down by this time a couple of nurses come over all of them have clear name badges and credentials on display as well as these little communication devices that are like Star Trek communicators but look and perform a lot less cool the head nurse who is so sweet just like all the ones I had during my stay had taken on the scary resting be face that would make me think twice didn't even scare crazy pucker face she barges right up to the nurse and demands to be taken to her son spouting off his name and date of birth to basically everyone on the and then demands that I be fired pokerface oh and fire that be she's completely incompetent and rude head nurse deadpans with a chill game I'm rather envious of she doesn't work here and I'm gonna have to ask you to refrain from yelling and harassing people this is a hospital and people are trying to heal and rest pucker face I understand but this woman isn't letting me see my son and he needs his mommy right now she needs to be dealt with for being such a terrible irresponsible nurse me but I'm not a nurse head nurse again Calypso is not employed by large Texas Hospital in a major metropolitan area after going back and forth for several minutes pucker face can't seem to wrap her brain around the fact that I don't actually work at the hospital she's basically a broken record calling for me to get fired like she's forgotten why she's here in the first place head nurse is calm and has explained it as many different ways as she possibly can and he's starting to rub her temples with must be a nasty headache finally after a couple of seconds of quiet she turns to me head nurse hey Calypso you're fired okay me okay head nurse holding an elevator for me go on now get on your way I get on the elevator and head downstairs incredibly grateful to be away from that monstrous woman and go to collect my well-deserved prize and text my wife about the whole thing she'll find it hilarious but the story doesn't in there as it turns out when they look up information for a son who turns out to be two rooms down from mine he specifically said his mother is on the list of people who absolutely under no circumstances could be allowed to visit so I watched her get dragged kicking screaming and biting through the hospital's main lobby when I was returning from the cafeteria the chocolate milk and cookies were twice as tasty after that poor B turned up that evening to apologize for his mother since news of the crazy lady spread across the floor like wildfire he and his family were really cool looks like we're going to be physical therapy buddies now and we can swap bat SH crazy moms stories together also shout out to all the nurses out there you were all the real MVPs for all the Care you do and for putting up with people's crazy antics thanks the next story is I don't work here and a venomous manager tried to write me up for it oh boy I'm tired of being recognized I live in a relatively small podunk college town with three grocery stores a dying mall in a slightly decent downtown because I work in one of those grocery stores in a pharmacy I'm often identified when I'm out and about and for some reason I just look like I work there wherever this mystical there is this took place a few years ago and since the manager is no longer with the store I think I can write it up without retribution I've got long hair a beard I'm a bit on a heavy side and I normally wear rock t-shirts and a leather biker jacket when I'm not at work I wear this like armor as I'm actually very passive and I don't want to be bothered when I'm out and about I look tough but there's nothing tough about my marshmallow soul I've just finished watching a movie at our local dying mall having gone myself since I just wanted to get away for a while and I'm currently wearing a Doctor Who hoodie and jeans hair down and a Guns N'Roses t-shirt as I'm exiting the theater I hear that dreaded voice the entitled call of the snooty customer hey hey you I turn around and see your average soccer mom with bleached blond hair and a purse big enough to brain a camel carrying a large collection of trash she's holding the trash with one hand her struggling child with the other and stares at me pointedly I don't want to believe what's about to happen but I steel myself yes throw this away no please no asking just a demand I glanced to a trash can that's only five feet from where she's standing why oh you think I just offered to split her child in half in front of her with a broadsword you work at big box store you're used to this amazing she knows I don't work there but she still thinks I'm put on this earth to serve her I just roll my eyes and turn away scooting towards the bathroom sorry ma'am got a pee and I do just that taking a quick leak in a long time washing my hands by the time I exit the woman and her kid are gone I figured that's all that's going to happen with this just some entitled person who thinks it because I work in retail she can just treat me like an indentured servant oh boy was I wrong two days later I'm back at work cleaned up hair in a ponytail in uniform just doing my thing slinging drugs at the pharmacy when one of our most hated managers shows up let's call her Gladys mostly because the antagonist of portal is how she's always seemed to me passive-aggressive snobby and more than happy to toss her weight around Wyatt Kelly would you come with me please I'm a bit shocked since I've not been in trouble with this job for over five years and my mind immediately starts spinning through anything I may have done in the past week or so GLaDOS takes me back to the manager office picks up some papers and has a seat Wyatt Kelly I had a complaint about you the other day from a customer I sink down trying not to shake with panic what have I done she says you were very rude to her at the movie theater the other day and refused to help her silence I just blink a few times at GLaDOS I'm sorry what GLaDOS repeats the accusation when you work for this company you represent us even when you're not on the clock now I'm only going to give you a coaching but I want you to watch what you do in the future no GLaDOS looks back at me in shock did I just say no to her what do you mean no I said no I'm not taking a coaching for something that happened off the clock I leaned forward folding my hands in my lap and glaring at her why are there no other managers here why is my pharmacy manager not here shouldn't he be here when I'm being coached by someone that's not even over my department speaking of which where's our department manager could you show me where in the code of conduct handbook it says I can't refuse to clean up after someone when I'm not on the clock doesn't it say in the training videos we watch when we start not to work off the clock GLaDOS is doing her best impression of a gaping fish by this point eyes wide and staring back at me I don't think she was expecting the happy-go-lucky nerd in the pharmacy to take such a hard line and not just roll over to her casual bullying I stood up and open the door if you want to take it up with my manager please do but do know that if I hear anything about this I'll take this all the way to the store manager your boss corporate if I have to I left shaking with anger I'd hurt others in the store be about this manager before and how she tried to toss her weight around but I'd never had it happen to me before I don't know if the original customer was a friend of Gladys and she thought she'd get some revenge but I never heard anything else on the matter two months later Gladys was let go in his store restructuring every other manager was shifted or reassigned but she was the only one to be the door thanks for
