ALERT. BITCHY RANT FOLLOWING....

I am SO not happy with my job right now.. we had some major weather systems come through here on Friday 4/7 which came pretty close to my work. There are 3 floors and 2 wings to the building; the entire east wing is empty, as is the third floor of the west wing. I work on the first floor of west, therefore 1W. Severe thunderstorm warnings & tornado watches and warnings all friggin day; however, it did not even rain at my work til almost 3:30pm. This may have contributed to the following decision, I don't know.
Here's what basically happened; at about 4pm one of the guys from 2W came down to get his 7 1/2mos pregnant wife who works with me. He said Long Term Care (the company he works for, used to own who I work for, loooong story) was evacuating the building due to tornado warnings around the airport. The 50 or so people who work on 2W had been in the interior hallway since about 3:15pm, and their management had decided to send them home.
WE DID NOT HEAR A SINGLE DAMNED THING FROM OUR MANAGEMENT. NOTHING. NADA. ZIP. ZERO.
They were being sent home whilst we were answering phones and completely unaware of anything close. Most of us had one of the local weather websites up (Channel 5, Ch 4, Weather.com, something) but no streaming video (won't let us) or internet radio (ditto, eats up too much bandwidth sez the IT gods. whatever). One person had a radio on our floor and heard about a warning near the airport; brought it to supervisor's attention but don't know what happened to it after that. Bad thing is, one of the assistant supervisors has family that lives in Sumner Co; she was absolutely frantic and could not wait to get out of there to go check on her dad & grandmother.
Here's my thing: If management's decision is to keep us on the phones, at least make it look like you give a shit by saying, "we think you'll be safer here than out on the street trying to get home" or some bullshit like that. We didn't even get that. I am really trying to see why I should stay with a company who would rather us meet their fucking service levels than see if their employees are safe or not.
I am seriously considering looking for another job. In Nashville's market right now, that is not an easy decision to make. I have to pray and think about it, ask advice, network, etc. I am going to need a lot of help and support.
