If I could give this place zero stars I would.
let's talk about the owner Patricia Manley for a bit. Patty spent a good 2.5 years trying to get me to come work for her. Usually when she hit me up I was working elsewhere and making good money. Finally I came to a point in my life where I was tired of full on facilities and missed the homey feeling of group home types. I was hired on immediately. Most of the residents were pretty cool and the work wasn't overly hard. What I wasn't expecting on my 1st day (with no training) was to be asked to stay almost a full extra shift after mine. Someone didn't show up, didn't call etc. I told patty that I needed to check on my dog. I made the necessary arrangements and stayed. At about midnight the person who was supposed to be there showed up at midnight. She was not dressed in proper attire and was high on something other than some weed. It was left up to me to send her home.....cool I took care of it because patty was tired and she was my "friend" fast forward to payday....I get my check and it's about 100.00 less than it should be. Turns out my very 1st day of work she paid me "orientation pay" for that entire 14 hours I stayed.....I was not happy and I made it clear. Also my name was spelled wrong on my check so I couldn't even cash it. Getting her to fix that was like pulling teeth. A few days later I go into work as scheduled and I walked into an entire shit show. Food wasn't prepped, someone was moving out, she's yelling at said person moving and I'm expected to do everything that should have been done, plus pass meds, plus cook dinner, plus help the resident move/pack
I also had to do all of the toileting, set the table and serve dinner BY MYSELF.....I made it happen. Got everything done and clocked out on time. All my charting was done too. I go to the bathroom after I clock out and when I'm done I snap a pic of myself because for once I feel pretty. It's in the bathroom there's no residents, I'm clocked off and we are allowed to have our phones on us. I post it on Facebook at midnight. 2 HOURS after my shift is done. The next morning I wake up and see that Patty has commented on my picture. She says "no more taking pictures, then lol"underneath it.
I figured she was joking so I responded with pffftttttt no big deal. Nope I was wrong she was very salty. I informed her I was not on the clock and it shouldn't be an issue. She had no issues with anyone else doing it but when I did it there was an issue. So the next day I'm with Nora Otto and we are at the VA for my appointment. Our co-worker Kendra is messaging Nora asking if she would stay if I "hypothetically got fired" fast forward to the next day she fires me via text. Friday....was supposed to be payday and I have yet to be paid.....what a fun journey. Feel free to share this post. I don't want others to go through what I've gone through. read more
