I like this woman, she is very nice. But she has been given several months to meet efficiency standards and there is also reasons to believe she misrepresented herself in her resume. So my bosses, although they like her as a person as well, feel that she is holding us back and that too many others are having to devote their time to pick up this woman's slack. So I was asked this morning what my opinion was and I agreed with their reasoning. So in the next few months, she will most likely be let go. But I know she is a single woman and this is a bad economy to be jobless in, and I don't know if I should give her a head's up to start looking for another job while she has time.
She is not the devious type. Everyone really likes her and she tries to be helpful, she just does not have the skill set to do the job right and the owners can't keep an employee just because she is nice. But before they hired her she had been jobless for seven months and on unemployment.
My job is not in danger if I tell her. But I would likely not be held in as high of a confidence with my bosses if they knew I told her.

I am a charge nurse working in a busy hospital environment where our staffing has been cut to point that our patients often go 3 days without baths, their vital signs are taken late or skipped, they often get their medications late. Almost daily, one or more nurses are in tears because they are so overwhelmed in their work. When I took these concerns to our unit supervisor she raised her voice at me and told me that I had a negative attitude and that if I was unhappy in my job maybe I should consider this line of work is not for me. First of all I was shocked because I am known as trying to huddle the gang together and cheer them on trying the best I can to motivate staff. This unit manager stays behind closed doors most of the time and doesn't see the job I do or the measures I gone to in order to try to make improvements in patient care and nurse satisfaction. Frankly, I was so upset, I was in tears because I couldn't believe my immediate supervisor has such a poor opinion of me! There have been few incidents in which I've had to report floor problems to her and I feel like my character has been maligned. Should I consider moving on or tough it out for the sake of the staff nurses and the patients? I'm worried if I can't turn my supervisors opinion around that I may ruin my nursing career in this job.

The job that i have now, I am supposed to work Monday thru Friday 9-5 but I am in school Tuesdays and Thursdays so my boss is nice enough to let me only work Mon,Wed,Fri. It's an office job so I basically sit on the computer all day and get to do whatever I want. However, my old co-worker from Victoria Secret (the job I had before this one) is a manager at BeBe and told me to apply and I would get hired so I did and I got hired but now I dont know where to work. I made a list of positive/negatvies of each job. Can anyone help me with my decision? What would you do?

Office Job

Positive:
Easy
Don't work weekends
Getting a raise soon (I make $9/hour now)
Get to do whatever I want ( talk on my phone, go on myspace, AIM, do my homework, etc)

negative:
It gets pretty boring after a while
I don't make enough money here

Bebe

Positive:
I would meet new people
Make commission (with the Holiday Season coming up I would make alot)
Have the opportunity to work more hours if I wanted to
I love shopping/clothes

Negative:
I would have to stand up all day most likely in heels
Have to work weekends and nights, but I can alway's request off

Both of these jobs are the same distance from my house.
