HOLIDAY: NEEDED
- I was late for work. No fault of my own; a train broke down a few stops ahead and jammed up the entire line. Thus sitting on a train for half an hour, becoming increasingly late all the while.
- One of my consultants got a new registrar! Not only can said new registrar not string a sentence together worth crap, but he also feels it necessary to cram as many fifty-cent words into a sentence as possible, even if they make little sense and he can't pronounce them. And then there's the fact that he can't handle a dictaphone because I ended up trying to type through his gods-awful tape this morning through this clunking noise that rendered some of his muttering inaudible. That tape has been set aside until I don't want to kill things.
- Senior nurse specialist wandered off for lunch without his cellphone, because it was on charge. He apparently decided that we would love to listen to his annoying ring tone over and over and over again at ear-splitting volume levels as people tried desperately to get hold of him regarding an appointment for which, because he decided to take a lingering lunch, he showed up late.
- One of my consultants has this thing about not giving me spellings of difficult names, only the vaguest idea of the address (yes, 'Colchester'; that's helpful) and no other clues as to where the letter's supposed to go when he's copying in half the planet. I thus spend twenty minutes digging through the notes for any clue and trying every spelling variation of the name I can think of in Google. Today, I finally give up and ask him if he's at least got a spelling. Answer - given like I should have known - was "Oh, I gave the letter from this guy to your colleague for filing last week". Yes, because of course we're psychic and my colleague hasn't got enough to do.
- And there goes senior nurse specialist's phone again...
- One of my favourite nurse specialists has unfortunately decided to mumble through her last tape.
- AND THERE GOES SENIOR NURSE SPECIALIST'S PHONE AGAIN! Why can't he put it on silent or take it somewhere else or both while he's seeing patients/having lunch/whatever?
- Headaaaaaaaaaaache.
Gods, this has not been a good day.
