Tried to tell you, but since you refused to hear it, so everything has been laid bare. You have to be willfully ignorant not to see it.


Why would a so-called lab manager furlough cytotechs when the workload was obviously returning to normal?


Although one out of three cytotechs was called back to work, there are still two others on furlough. They have the least amount of seniority, but one is admired, because he is not afraid to speak the truth about working conditions when asked to do so. (And that’s a real no-no for these characters). Besides, a narcissist cannot abide attention to be “stolen” from her.


The backlog is so large that techs are working overtime this weekend. Yes, LCA is paying overtime to help relieve the easily predictable backlog, while 2 techs are on furlough.


 Oh, I am sure she will say that she was ordered to do so by her boss, L.

L., who she won over by flattering her, is in her pocket. L. will take the blame (and get thrown under the bus). With a backlog, LCA will have to maintain the status quo, she won’t have to go back to reading Paps, and her job is safe.


So, in a nutshell, what has been laid bare?

 INCOMPETENCE!!
