Works from 7pm-3 am,
Use to before last summer work a sixty hour week,
Disabilied,
Worked five years at Mercy One on cane in Waterloo,Iowa,forty miles from home,
Secretary ER,
Never had a break,
Hurts to stand,
Hurts to walk,
No heat at home for two years,
No Furnace,
Northern Iowa,
Two years,
Worked there fifteen years,
Had hip replaced this summer,
Her knees are gone,
She has given both hips and both knees to her job,
Twice in two twenty-one Penny has Covid,
Her lung’s are crap!
After hip surgery Penny asked to work on Walker!
In an answer they placed Penny on two months disability,
And raped Penny of her sick leave,
During that two month the hospital HR saw as a Vacation for Penny they gave her a pay cut of 75% less what she made working to live in!
And of course for third time Penny got Covid!
After completing the list of things needed to keep her job back,
She couldn’t seek a new job she was still considered an employee,
The day after her five days with Covid,
Of which the hospital in Waterloo knew she had the called her back to work,
Penny went,
Catholic hospital has no fucking compassion for even loyalty at $15/an hour!
The hospital owes Penny long term disability,
So many things they promised would get her job back,
After she passed the four hour physical exam the HR said she never got the form acknowledging she passed the test,
Took two weeks,
She got the bill for the rest ASAP!
Thousand of dollars,
Penny wasn’t injured,
Workman’s Comp refused to pay for the test the HR demanded Penny had to return to work!
All this time the Mercy One figured Penny would just quit,
Fuck that thus is an Iowa girl born and breed not a quiter,
Fuck that even when in the pain that men would have just laud down and died!
