Fucked up idiots are just everywhere isn't it?
Thanks to my friend, Samya, that I get to chill out at the beach. I'm not a beach fan, but I appreciate her effort of trying to cheer me up. The weather wasn't the best to sit by the beach and enjoy a cup of hot chocolate. However, I got to see the massive waves, and do know where to bring Dearie when he comes to visit me. Most importantly, I have got to understand more about this friend of mine.
I have been really busy at work. As usual, I never finish on time. But my life is starting to get miserable because of 1 asshole. I know I sound really unprofessional, and being in the same team, we should give each other support. But what he has done to me over the 2 wks+ have been beyond my limit. Knowing how bad tempered I am, I will not be tolerating any nonsense, but because I see him as part of the team, I tolerated. However, it has gotten to a point whereby I can NO LONGER tolerate.
I can tolerate the shit jobs he throws at me. I can tolerate the fact that I am working till very late everyday to handle all the rubbish he gives me plus finish up his job. But I cannot tolerate the disrespect he gives me even though I'm his junior.
Apparently, I have written up blood forms for patients in the acute admissions unit because I was instructed to do so by my Registrar, but the asshole who shouldn't get himself involved with those patients because he wasn't on call with me that day and hence have absolutely no responsibility of these patients, went to the acute admissions unit and tore up ALL the forms I wrote up, and wrote new ones up himself and ordered shit load of blood tests for the patients when they don't even need them. And because of that, I have no record of what has been done because he upsetted everything for me.
What got me more pissed was instead of doing his job, he went poking into the stuffs I did for my patients, and didn't do any of his job. I finished my job 10 mins before 5, and I thought maybe he'll be busy in the main ward, and so kindly decided that I shall go and help him out. But the first thing he said when he saw me was "WHERE ARE ALL MY BLOOD RESULTS?! I WENT ON THE WARD ROUND TODAY, AND GOT ASKED ABOUT THEM. AND I COULD NOT EVEN TELL THE REGISTRAR BECAUSE I DIDN'T HAVE THEM!"
That pissed the hell out of me because I recorded all of it down into a file, and he was just stupid for not seeing it. Besides, he was the ONLY person not being on call that day, and hence, his only fucking duty was to take care of the main ward, but he didn't even check for blood results, and expects poor me to do it when I am covering the acute admissions unit. And before I could tell him off, he said "BECAUSE I GOT NO RESULTS, I HAVE ORDERED BLOOD TESTS FOR EVERY PATIENT ON THE WARD!"
It made me really angry. If the patient needs blood tests done, then fair enough that he/she has to get pricked by the needle. But when there is no need for further blood tests, why put through the patient through that misery? Why add on more workload to the other hospital staff for no reason? I think he bloody thinks it's fun and it'll look like he's doing something, when actually, I AM the one who ends up sorting out ALL the blood results for the patients in the entire ward, plus sign EVERY damn blood report that comes back. I am busy enough, and I see no point in adding on nonsensical stuffs to my workload.
I was too lazy to argue much with him despite me boiling and telling him that if it's not asked by the Consultant, there is no need to do extra stuffs, but instead of hearing me out, he insisted that he's right and totally refused to listen to any of my concerns, before storming out of the ward to tear up all my forms in another ward. I bet u he did that to take revenge on me!
I had no idea what went on in the main ward during my on call days, so I thought I'll look through the notes. And to my surprise, none of the jobs was done. It isn't the first time, and I started wondering what the fuck he did for those days. I asked him and guess what his reply was? "I am busy. I got a lot of things to do."....the best reason ever. But to me, that is UNACCEPTABLE because I am just as busy. All he had to do is to cover the main ward of stable patients, while I had to cover the acute admissions full of unstable patients.
Yes, I know he's busy...busy tearing up all my forms?!
Then I had concerns from the nurse about some abnormal blood results of a patient. This asshole insisted that he wants to send the patient home, but the nurses are not for it, so they came and ask me for my view. I personally wouldn't send that patient home because if she deteriorates, and the blood results get even more abnormal, she might end up being back in hospital as an emergency case soon.
When he heard that I wasn't for the patient to go home, he stormed into the ward again and told me he's sending the patient home no matter what I say. Good thing I have settled things with the family, and they had already left, so even despite whatever fucked up objections he's got, the patient is staying for one more night so that I can monitor her blood levels the next day. Brought my concerns up to my Registrar, and even she thinks that the patient shouldn't be sent home.
For all the things he did to me yesterday, I cannot take it lying down, and eventually did say things pretty direct, telling him off that he didn't even do his job, but instead, go to my wards to mess up all my forms, and I am actually helping him complete his work. And that bugger actually dared to say "TELL ME WHAT U DID FOR ME! LIKE WHAT?! SHOW ME!"
Sheesh, not even a "Thank you", but scream at me somemore. KNN!
Showed him the numerous blood forms I had to write up. And what he said after looking at those was the final straw. "WHY ARE U HERE? IT'S PAST 5 O'CLOCK. I CAN DO THEM MYSELF. U DON'T NEED TO BE HERE...U CAN GO HOME NOW!"
I think even if I'm a super tolerant person, I would storm off. Didn't say a word, but the look from my eyes could tell him that I am cursing him. Headed to the nurses' room for a cool drink, and I was almost at the verge of tears. I shouldn't have been that kind to him when I can go home 10 mins earlier, which is super rare for me.
Anyway, I did mention about this to one of the Sisters in the acute admissions ward, and she went to tell one of the more senior doctors, who came and have a word with me today. Honestly, I don't know if this problem is gonna be resolved. I want to be professional by not bearing any grudges on this asshole, but I don't think that is ever possible. No matter how well things go, a scar is being left, and it is one that I will not forget unfortunately. But I will make sure it will not put my patients' lives at stake.
And I will not tolerate any longer if he is being fucked up at the expense of my patients.
I can go on forever abt all that I'm unhappy about this idiot, but I think it's time for me to zzz too. Grr...so sianz..didn't even get to chat with Dearie tonight. He didn't sms me too. Wonder if he's too tired and dozed off, or he's mad at me for being home late again. It's almost 8am in Beijing now, but still no signs of him...sigh...
