2002-04-21 - 11:32 p.m. Beep.. Can I help you?.. This weekend, I must have said these lines a gazillion times. It was just unbelievably crazy at work. There would be a 5 minute interval between the dischrges and the admissions. I mean, what is going on? Why are there so many people sick? The patients were such pains in the butts too. I don't mean to be insensitive, I know they're sick and all. But they were just ridiculously demanding! Goodness gracious, great balls of fire! The call bell seemed like such a great discovery to them so it was ringing like no tomorrow. The beeping sound gave me such a headache, I wanted to throw it out the window. It was absolutely odoriferous too. There were 5 males who pooped away. One made an attempt to defecate in his trash bin and missed horribly while his foley catheter was getting tangled about. One wise one decided to make a mess in the hall bathroom and not his own. Housekeeping took forever to come and clean it up so we, employees had nothing to use. Well I wasn't too sure I wanted to use it after it got de-virginized anyway! Yesterday, I also had 3 other girls helping me out. One of them I was training, and the other two were volunteers. Because I was training someone, I couldn't work as fast as I wanted while we were getting swamped. But she was ok. Now the two volunteers.. oh my! I had to think of something for them to do but it took longer teaching them than just doing it myself! Funny how it went. They were supposed to make my life easier, but it turned out hellish all the more. Anyhow, has anyone noticed how the weather went back to being cold all of a sudden? Could it be that I complained about it too much? Hmm.. maybe I should complain about things more than I usually do. Just a thought. Well, whatever it is, I'm going to have a good night's sleep at least. All snuggled up in my blankie, not hot and crappy! Aaahh.. lovely! It sounds too heavenly in fact, that I'm gonna do it right now. I'm just too tired. So Farewell & Good night!
