@pluralistic Back when I still worked in the field, my old job gave me an apple for radiographic tech week. They literally just gave my department an inexplicable box of apples, and that was it.

At the time, I was going on my third week of work straight with no days off, and I had to cancel my vacation because we were so short staffed. I pulled at least twelve hours daily, but usually more than that.

“Insult” doesn’t begin to cover it. Healthcare workers are treated like shit.
