About a year and a half ago, the doctor's, who's practice I manage, decided to hire a Nurse Manager for the clinical staff. There was a woman, that one of the doctors had a past working relationship with, so I called her, and ultimately she was hired. Well it became apparent that she and one of the other long time nurses were not going to work well together. Despite several mediation sessions, the situation became unworkable, and I got the distinctint impression that the Nurse Manager was one of those passive aggressive types, that was never happy and lived on complaining. Well, the situation finally came to head, and the other nurse decided it was time to retire, which she did, and we replaced her with a new hire...ok...great right? Guess again.
Not one day had passed before she started complaining about another nurse (whom she herself hired), saying she was difficult to work with and always complaining. Mind you, up to this point, she praised this nurse as though she were the return of Buddha on earth. I could just scream.
