That's a really long story... short version the CEO got in trouble got fired, so they put the retired administrator of our smaller hospital in as the CEO. He was pushing 70 hated technology, and we had been telling him what to do for years. The COO made it two weeks, the CFO made it a month, I made it 5 months. I don't do politics, I just call it like I see it. They paid me 6 months salary to go away and keep my mouth shut. That was 2 years ago this month.
It was a blessing in disguise, I make more from home than I did at the hospital. With a lot less stress and relatively low responsibility level.
It was a little weird for me, I had been on-call with one company or another since I was 22. That took a lot of getting used to, pretty much 18 years of having to plan everything around a pager or phone, and how quickly I could get somewhere.
that was a great short version @coinsandchains but why did they want you to leave? I don't get that part, because you wouldn't play politics?
That and if I heard a lie, I would call it a lie. Literally, the place was falling apart in a month. He started dismantling and canceling project we had all been working on for months.
Plus, he and I did not get along. When he was at the smaller hospital he fought me on every technology project, to the point he would tell his people they didn't have to do what I told them and almost got him fired. After that everything was more him working behind the scenes to undermine or sabotage projects, which was one of the things that got him "retired" the first time.
As soon as they named him CEO I knew I was done. I started sending resumes, etc. out that day. It just took him 5 months and 300k in consultants to convince the board to let him fire me. They found 3 things that were not following best practices across 12 facilities, one I was told no on the funding to fix, the other two I could say I had used a better option and it was a matter of opinion. They also said that my BS degree that I had just earned was not enough to hold that high of a position. (I was CIO before I completed my degree while working 60 hours a week)
The same consultant group agreed to cover my position and find a replacement for the small sum of another 2-300K.
Ok, now the story is a little longer.
holy moly man! wow. they sure knew how to burn through the money too! what was that guys insane problem? what is a CIO?
amazing story, had to be a spiritual thing behind it, there's no other reason.
thank you sir for explaining that, that there is flat out evil!
I thought it was evil too.... a CIO is Chief Information Officer, the duties vary between organizations. Generally responsible for all technology related items, data, security, etc.
howdy today @coinsandchains and good weekend to you! hey this turned out to be a blessing in disguise like you said, were you able to start bringing in money from home in a few months?
and then never looked back..except to maybe thank God that you are not working for the retarded hospital anymore? bytheway i hope the doctors ran their business better than the admins!
