Fat nurses - a liability. I work full time as an emergency and critical care veterinary nurse in a highly respected veterinary hospital. I worked my ass off to get to the position I’m in and I love my job. The only downside? My fat fuck work colleagues. One fat fuck in particular is the absolute bane of my existence.  To give you an idea of just how gargantuan this sack of butter is, our hospital provides uniforms (scrubs) for us which we put on at the beginning of a shift then return for them to be washed. I wear an extra small and find it to still be a tad baggy on me, she has to bring her own special ordered scrub pants because she doesn’t fit into the largest size we have - 3XL.  Some backstory: she was previously fired after a number of staff complained about her appalling attitude and her terrible work ethic, and for some reason they have allowed her to come back as a casual staff member. I worked as a casual at this place for about a year before a full time position opened up and I applied for it. She also applied and obviously didn’t get it because she’s a fat useless fuck that everyone hates.  Somehow, despite all of this, she still manages to be condescending to everyone around her. Some highlights from this week: She was doing a reception shift asked me to come put through a complicated payment for her because she was “just too busy” to do it. We have a camera feed to front reception so we can see if any animals need immediate assistance. There was no queue. She then became angry when I refused. She literally became angry at me for not doing her job for her, while I was working inside the ICU caring for patients.  She showed up for another front reception shift which is literally just sitting on your ass putting payments through for 6 hours, and said “I’m not going to be able to run any animals down to the ICU if any come in needing urgent treatment because I went to a concert last week and my feet are still sore”. Yeah don’t worry about that dog bleeding to death, your fee fees hurt and that’s more important. Later that night she called through to the ICU to say she was leaving 2 hours early because “it probably wasn’t going to get any busier and she was bored”. We’re a fucking emergency centre, anything can happen at any time, we have no idea if it’s going to be dead one minute and chaos the next. Without a receptionist we are fucked if it gets busy. Fatty dun care.  Every shift she brings her hyperactive untrained little shit of a dog with her and let’s it run rampant. I was in the middle of my lunch break (we do shifts between 10 and 13 hours with only one break if it’s quiet enough to have one at all) and out of nowhere she unleashes this thing in the break room and it jumps up onto the table and stomps around in my food and jumps all over me and she does literally nothing about it. No reprimanding, no leashing, didn’t even react.  The worst part is when she covers a shift inside the actual ICU. We are currently being renovated and we expect to have a nice new fancy ICU by the end of this year. In the mean time we have been moved into a relatively small room with cages and equipment all crammed in. This is not a fat friendly room. She is CONSTANTLY in the way, avoiding work wherever possible, never pulling her weight and still somehow talking down to everyone else in the room. All the staff hate her and I have no idea how she remains employed. Hopefully she contracts some kind of zoonotic disease.  Thank you for listening to my rant. Fuck fat people.
