I was an RN for 45 years. Hospitals are ruthless
-
I can't believe this hospital laid all these people off. Get rid of all the top heavy number crunchers.
-
These companies do not care about people at all. They do this all the time they just picked the wrong person to mess with. I'm so glad she is fighting back for us all. I hope they have to pay her for every penny she used to get there.
-
Why is it that hospitals generally seem the least concerned about the welfare of people?
-
I couldn’t imagine what went through her mind finding out over the phone. Bills never stop.
-
Hope she wins. This lady relocated from a different state and spent 20k to relocate. Why should individuals give a two week notice while employers can release on the spot.
-
No job security in the medical field either. Yet all these medical and nursing schools keep saying there is a shortage. Hypocrisy.
-
Is it just me or does it sound like she should be suing the hiring company, not the hospital. Report said the hiring company knew about the freeze 2 months ago and had her continue the process anyways.
-
So it's not the hospital at fault. It's the hiring company who should've put a pause on hiring. The hospital told them about the hiring freeze two months earlier.
-
I moved across the country for a government job and before I moved I accepted the tentative offer and was "hired" before moving. The employment checks such as extensive background investigation, physical and approved onboarding documentation were already completed. There was no longer a job offer to pull/rescind before I moved because I was already hired as an employee. This is crazy to move to another state based on a "job offer" that could be rescinded at any time.
-
With all these laid off, people should start suing for wrongful terminations. People sick and tired of playing games.
-
Employers need to be held responsible for their sloppy hiring practices. I hope she wins. I've heard reports like this before
-
She's EXACTLY, right... people, in Houston, DO NOT CARE about other people... it's terrifying 😳
-
This is sad. I'm glad she was able to find another employer quickly. Children's hospital's around the country are money pits, so please be mindful when applying to them specifically to work with children. All of them are operating in the red.
-
She shouldn't have a problem getting hired. But you don't uproot your family until you've been there for awhile and definitely not sell your house.
-
Hope she wins!
-
She needs to sue not only the hospital but also the hiring agency too! Both were trash for doing this in the middle of the hiring process! Thank God she was able to find another job at a much better hospital, but what about all of the other innocent people who were hired? They also applied and more than likely had their job offers taken too even after relocation, they should all file a lawsuit too.
-
But but but I thought no one wants to work. This is why loyalty to any company is insanity. They will cut your job without a second thought but are upset people want livable wages and job security.
-
Being that it's TCH I'm not surprised... they have shady ways.
-
Wait…. she was offered the job contingent upon successfully completing health screening (and drug screening) among other things. WHY would you uproot your family when you haven’t been onboarded yet???
