So torn

in September 2011 Moms
I live in NY and so we are expected to get hit with hurricane Sandy. I am scheduled to work 12 hours tomorrow- I am a nurse. The hospital already called me to make sure I was going to come. I am so torn. If I go I will probably get stuck at the hospital and not make it home tomorrow night based on the forecast. I will hopefully make it home on Tues but that isn't guaranteed. It is bothering me so much that I am going to be away from A for an unknown amount of time. DH is going to work from home so A will be in good hands. But I hate that during a potentially dangerous storm I won't be here. If something happened to A I wouldn't be able to get home. But they need nurses to take care of the patients who can't all go home just because a hurricane is coming. DH doesn't want me to go at all. But if I can safely get there I really should try. It is so frustrating. I am just going to hope it won't be as bad as they think and worst case I can get home Tues morning.

    I understand you don't want to be away from A. That would be hard for me too. If it were me, I'd try to go to work. I always hated calling off. A will be with your hubby, so that's a great thing. It's not like A will be with someone else. That would be call off material for me. Lol.

    Please stay safe, and don't worry mama!

    I'm in NY too, and I really hope this is all hype! Unfortunately I think you have one of those jobs that are still a total necessity even at times like this :(

    If you don't go, what type of consequences will you face?

    Thanks ladies. I am going to try to get there. I know that if one or two nurses don't show up it makes for a really difficult time for the nurses who are there. Hopefully going in won't be too bad and then if I have to stay over maybe it will be just one night. Manda- I don't think there will be consequences if I legitimately can't get there. I just feel bad since I have only been at this job for two and a half months. I don't want them to get the impression I will just call out without any effort.
