jcdayaz Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 Liz,It took me a moment also to get the abbreviation. I believe the reference is to "Shut The F--- up"!Bxcall1,Surely you made that post in jest. If my interpretation is correct of the initials you used, I could never imagine being told such a thing in a work environment. Personally, I would be totally and completely offended by such a comment. Perhaps you could try the suggestions of some of the previous posts and have a key phrase or a hand movement or something of the sort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eoin Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 In answer to the question about re-design of the lab, BB should always be segregated and placed into the quietest corner. The no interruptions rule when crossmatching takes a lot of follow-up frequentl. If you have one lab quality meeting for the whole place you are in clover. If you have your own for BB, it doesn't hurt re-iterating the motto there wither and you can always send a written request to other departments to be diseminated to all staff. They all understand and respect it BUT do make it written - if it isn't written, it didn't happen.CheersEoin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MEG Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 Our blood bank has half walls between work stations. We have been told by several reps to get rid of them. I am a talker, so I would be oart of your problem. I usually talked to myself. I think that the honest approach is the best, just ask them to talk quietly. They have all worked together so they know when a co worker needs so quite and space. They are just beginning to know you, so be honest. I do not think I would put a sign up, you will definately end up in the 2 or 3 category. Remeber the blood bank is only as good as its workers, and happy workers are good workers. Good Luck!
