update on my job training.

[Quasar44]

Part of my school program i have to work Monday, Wed, Friday and long hours !!!
Doing good in the classroom and then doing it in the real world is very very different.

I thought I did fine in the classroom but in the real world its been very infuriating . Many patients CANNOT move to the positions you want for X ray and I am having difficulties trying to find new solutions for them as they cant move. I am not good at thinking fast on my toes.

I am also having difficulties remembering procedures and big difficulties operating the machines I have too. I am literally fighting the machines all day along and trying to muscle them.

I have been written up for just about everything such as forgetting to check patients B-days, taking too LONG to position the machines and even those MF wrote me up for taking an extended 7 minutes for lunch.
Also written up for placing patients in unconfrontable positions as I struggle with figuring out positions and using the machines.

I am trying and will NOT GIVE UP.
I guess I can only get better lol

One of the techs did show me how to use the machine and he was surprised I was unware of several basic features on the machine.
Well excuse me , It was not obvious to me at all.

They also wrote me up for being too HARD on the breaks and wearing the machines out.

IT does take me a few extra minutes to find the lunch cafeteria and i dont think a tiny extra lunch was a big deal. They are super slow in the lunch room and I sometimes have to take the elevators to get them.

F this S .. I wont give up

Any advise would BE GREAT !!!

You got this. Work hard and stay positive.

Maybe find another line of work that doesn’t involve interacting with people.

I know I aint the brightest bulb around but this is hard

It's new to you, it takes getting used to. With repetition comes mastery.

Get a desk job.

You shouldn't be anywhere near machines or patients. Especially both at the same time. You are accident prone and lack common sense. I'm afraid you are going to hurt a patient.

you will not pass the state test so I suggest asking for a refund

 

[BULLDOG]

The nerve of those sick and hurting people to make things so hard for you. Kick a few patients out of the x-ray suite. The rest will try harder.

Trade Schools make every task sound easier than reality.
But it's similar to sucking a piano up your nose through a straw....yeah....not so easy.

Especially when you have zero knowledge about the equipment or how it operates.

But....FYI....the boom articulates in any direction you wish.
The table rises and lowers as well....or just half of it will rise or lower.

I've installed these gizmos before. That's a job. The walls have lead lining. The doors have interlocks that keep people from opening them while taking pictures. The table and booms need power from the MCP.
So somewhere there is a ditch in the floor (covered) that is FULL of cables running from a box on the wall to the boom and table...and possibly to a control panel behind leaded glass.

The door interlocks are above the JAMMED FULL ceiling in a conduit with spray painted connectors and couplings. Ceilings in hospitals are always full of conduits.
I personally disliked working in them for this reason....Zero room to work and impossible requests made all at the same time.

But the MRI rooms are worse....just saying. Zero cell phone reception in those rooms.
