It's a combination of factors. Part of the problem is they are all part of this entitlement generation who call in sick if their throat is a wee bit scratchy, and simply don't understand why THEY should have to take out the garbage, or mop the floor, or give the meds, while their coworkers are sitting around doing nothing.
Couple that with a complete lack of communication, and everyone assuming everyone else is taking care of things, and it's a wonder the hospital doesn't burn down around them.
Which is Tery's favorite theory about the overnight people -- we're the only ones there, so we know if we didn't do it, it didn't get done, making us twice as efficient as a fully staffed day shift.
