How many of you have either been laid off, felt compelled to quit, or were unjustly let go of? Count me in as one who quit to keep sane.

Yes, I too will be leaving soon. Can't wait! What was an amazing company and job is no longer. Thank goodness as RNs we have options and are appreciated. as well as treated with respect for the professional's we are.
Seriously searching for a position. I am tired of 50 hour work weeks, no lunches, no breaks, and still have to meet metrics when we have mandatory meetings and education.
There are better companies---- start looking! I was just forcing myself to work each day telling myself, "if you do the right thing and good work it will be your okay", it's not! I was crying on Sunday nights , dreading this ridiculous job! I didn't feel like a nurse. I do now! Almost done! Great opportunity out there, good interviews with good companies!
Oh gosh I know you can't but I wish you all could say where you found work. I am going to start looking this week. Its Sunday night and I am dreading Mondays. I keep wondering is another company ANY better/?? Or are they all quota micromanaging/ monitoring every second now with the auto dialer and Aux codes.... yes, every SECOND is monitored and graphed, even for salary people. It is insane . And for people who are meeting the quota, getting good evals, good talk times' etc, people who don't even merit having that kind of micromanaging monitoring overseeing and constant threats of punishment and with layoff hanging over their heads.
How on earth do you keep up with licensing in 50 states and who pays for it all????
I've interviewed at several places and i'm hopeful for an offer this week. And hoping it's at the comany MF wants to "get back at" so badly.
I'm so happy for you! I agree that the best thing I did for me was to turn in my notice. I was one of those who did whatever it took to meet or exceed metric, including not taking lunches or breaks and the occasional free overtime. Fast forward to 2.0 with minimal training, keeping up with 50 state licensures, and increased policing by TQR, along with being ditched to 5+ coaches during a short period of time like a pair of dirty underwear, I reached my breaking point. Slowly but surely, Humana is burning out the best of the best. Kudos to those who escaped Alcatraz.
Gave my notice, working for a competitor, also a salary position, BUT I can take off my PTO in hourly increments for appointments, that is such a relief! Annual bonus. I didn't realize how miserable Humana was making me until I gave notice! This is the worst job as far as nursing that I have ever had! MF seemed so smug at last weeks meeting while ignoring every question. Wait til all the good nurses leave and let's see your peer averages then! Never again!!!!!
Just accepted a great new position- no more micromanagement and awful leadership for me. I am letting every one in my professional circle know to avoid Humana like the plague. I have a big circle, too.
I resigned. Too much for me
I'm in the process of looking elsewhere. My goal is simple- to be treated like a human being again. I'm not asking for a lot.
