Union Problems

They have full time a couple of kiss ass cytotechs there that only work 3 or 4 hours per day, including weekends, before heading for their other jobs. Screening unsatisfactory cases must be simple work. A number of years ago, one of them got a lab closed down after a state inspection for reading more than the equivalent of 80 slides in a 24 hour period. The penalty was that all of her and another tech's work had had to be re screened. She was secretly leaving the first job, during lunch, to work at another lab. Unfortunately she got busted, when her boss showed up one afternoon and caught her red handed, at the microscope screening paps at her other job. She got fired. I'll give you one guess who hired her. That's right. LabCorp. Still up to the same old tricks?
( Meanwhile, the rest of the cytotechs are working their butts off) No wonder they get pissed when inequities are brought up. Who wouldn't want a 3 hour job with full time pay? I wonder if they are distributing their own work. Now that would make sense, wouldn't it?

Cytotechs are all about to be replaced by HPV testing. Better be finding yourself a new job

Most of that is factual. My recollection is that she had a full time position at a lab in Los Alomitos It was a quire day and and is now out of business. At the time, Her friend and former coworker at the lab other was caught by the State inspector from Laboratory Field Services working for more than one lab and screening over the 80 slides per day California limit. The Stae forced kthe lab to rescreen all of his work. They hired cytotechs to rescreen the slides. ( Some techs refused to do this out of a sense of professional solidarity.)

One day she left the lab during her lunch hour to rescreen slides at the other lab. The lab manager from her full time job walked in and caught her reading the paps. D.W. said he fired her. And yes, Labcorp, in turn, hired her, so what you suggest is not a surprise. I was also told that the cytotech who got the lab in trouble could not find another job in this state. Bad reputation. So he moved to Arizona and he was hired by labcorp. Well that goes to show the value of LabCorp's background checks. Lol.

When you do special favors for the lab director, this is your reward. Everybody else gets the cheerleader yell, a piece of chocolate, and an increase in the workload with NO increase in pay.

That is why we need the union.
 






You manage them out and the union thoughts are gone. Set an example and have courage and documentation. You are not the first lab and will not be the last. They all do the same trick. Team effort with HR

If this company had professionally trained managers and a professional HR, instead of liars and thieves, no one would have union thoughts.

Yes, it is akin to Wells Fargo scandal. They will do anything or screw over anybody to make quota. No compassion. You are just a unit of labor. I don't see why they have managers. They would be better off using robots/artificial intelligence. Sure would cut expenses. By the way, can the teach robots the art of deception? How to pass the buck?

Maybe/maybe not....most of the time it is about money.....the stuff you describe plays a role, but no one is voting for a union unless they think it will result in more bucks.

Well that is the point, isn't it. Without the wage theft and other California labor law violations, there would be way more money.

Sacramento has passed so many meaningless laws that it is impossible to keep them all straight. Just wait till the company gets hit with a lawsuit because a phlebotomist uses an incorrect gender identity to address a patient.
