Do not confuse short-staffed and understaffed.
Short-staffed is when two people call out sick unexpectedly, or someone is fired for cause. It is expected to a very short term interruption of smooth operations.
Understaffed is when someone decides that the work of ten people can be done by six people. There is no plan to hire anyone to alleviate the stress and increased workload.

In a healthcare #wtf moments, when I asked my boss at #Urgentcare yesterday about orders to add on an #influenza screen to our standard Covid for new nausea and ongoing headache/fatigue, I was forced off because this meets #Covid sx. At UC, our positivity rates for flu are 30% right now, so I was much more concerned for flu. So, they were #shortstaffed yesterday because it took time for my PCR to come back negative. What's more fun? Job doesn't require negative flu to return.

@ProfessorLoki yes im sure I will have a good sleep tonight. It’s not the easiest job at the moment but someone has to do it. Sadly many places are short staffed at the moment . And as an agency carer I try and help homes out #Healthcare #agency #shortstaffed

I love it when work asks if you can help by doing extra work, like it’s an actual choice 🤷🏻 #work #unpaid #shortstaffed
