I volunteered at an hospice in 2012, loved it so much I worked hard to get CNA/HHA and worked in shitty nursing homes to get the experience to come back as an employee which is now in 2015.
I have worked in the hospice for 5 months now. I thought I made a friend and thought she was amazing and told her everything about my life....everything. Things started going south, why am I getting in trouble for everything? This girl texts me to come in and see a patient on my time off because she is imminent and the family would love it. The family did love it but I got in trouble for crossing boundaries. I didn't say to the supervisor that she told me to because I naively believed maybe she didn't know either even though she has been her 8 years.
I am great at what I do, the families and patients love me but nurses and other aides started to hate me for my playful spirit. I am now basically ostracized from everyone and I hide in rooms and cry because I am the doormat little bitch that lets them all walk over me. I stood up for myself and gotten yelled down for it. I won't be that doormat any more though.
I am am keeping my mouth shut and eyes forward but I am breaking down crying so much.
to top it off. DCF was called by the emergency room because my teenage son had a emotional breakdown and was suicidal. He did come home that night but even though he and the whole family denies abuse the dr still called dcf because my very tall son has stretch marks that are horizontal on his back from a major growth spurt.
i am terrified of this one girl coming after me because I told management the truth and I am scared of losing my son over stretch marks. I am hating my life because everyone is being so mean at work and I don't want to be that pussy that hides and cries it all out.
I want want to hide and go back to just full time camming. Atleast then I can tell every asshole to fuck off. I really do love hospice philosophy though and wish there was more than just the one in my county.

Those other employees are probably just bitter and hate their jobs, so they resent that anybody could be enjoying it. Don't let them get you down. I'm sure the patients and their families are delighted to see someone that still has some spark left.
