I think if you have a great work environment with competitve pay then you have nothing to worry about. Your staff will stay put.

Joe, I can hardly believe you could be that grouchy :).  When I was 
looking hard for a tech I called my buddy Matt Chase at Children's to 
try and coax him over to my lab.  When he said no, I asked if he would 
let me chat with his techs and see how they were doing.  Alas, he also 
replied negatively to that.  The truth is that techs are becoming harder 
to find and are going at a premium price.

here we go and it's almost Friday. I received a call just like that at 
my 
last job. Me being me, I gave her a piece of my mind ( not too much, I 
don't 
have that much to go around). Told her she had some big testicles (not 
the 
word I used, but you get the idea) and hung up. I then called in the 
tech 
and had a talk with him. Asked him if he was looking for a job. He told 
me 
that he wasn't and didn't know how she got his name. I told him that if 
he 
was looking for another job to do it on his time and on his dollar. If I 

ever received another call from a headhunter naming him, he would have 
to 
talk to them because he would be shown the door. 
There are other ways to go about this. Calling a lab is not one of them, 
but 
I'm sure some people give their work number for different reasons, 
trying to 
use it as leverage for a pay raise, to get the supervisors nervous, 
because 
the techs are that brazen, or belong to the id10t  club. Let's face it, 
we 
are becoming a scarce breed and people have quotas to meet. Some will 
stop 
at nothing. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

I Wanted to obtained opinions of Managers/Supervisors in the histo world 
and 
how you handle situations regarding recruiters calling directly into 
Pathology Labs to specific tech's and stating they are seeking referrals 
for 
job placements. I recently had an AP staffing solution company call one 
of 
my labs to talk to any "histologist"  I felt was to recruit staff.  I 
feel 
this is an unprofessional practice to call directly into the laboratory 
and 
to hide behind the wording "referrals" when actually it appears they are 

trying to get information from the tech on the phone seeing if they are 
looking for a "new job".  I feel that this is an intrusion as well as 
inappropriate in our line of business and we are not in the business to 
give 
referrals to companies in the staffing solution arena for their monetary 

gain as well as trying to entice  our staff. What the staff does with 
these 
types of companies on personal time is their business, however, I think 
it 
is offending for companies to demonstrate this behavior.  If anyone 
would 
like to know which company and person called into my lab I will 
personally 
inform you on private email!
