Fun loving people
Who ever said doctors r a bunch of nerdy twarts?
Here I am in a department filled with MOs and HOs who crap all the time. And I'm thankful for having them around. To be honest, I'm beginning to feel sad abt the fact that we'll all be separated in a few months' time to go to another department.
We have coffee breaks together, lunch breaks together, and we do hop over to one another's area to crap and complain. It's great in a way, because a bond is formed between us, and everyone's willing to help if one of us requires it. Hence, the brilliant feeling of knowing that a war is not fought alone.
I fell ill (yup, again!) yesterday, and took half a day's MC. News spreads really fast here, because all the MOs and HOs in my department knew I was ill after being spotted in the staff clinic by a MO from another department.
I was at the verge of conking out, until my HO came along and said "Hey! Mark said u're DIL, for active management". (DIL means dangerously ill, and active management means in the event of me collapsing or going into cardiac arrest, I'm for CPR, intubation and admission into ICU)
And for the rest of the hours I stayed there, every MO and HO who sees me will give me the "OMG! Aren't you DIL?!!?!? Why r u still here?!?!?!" look.
I was so worn out yesterday, and I'm grateful to these funny ppl for making me laugh. And it did cheer me up a lot (even though I was ill) with the crap smses frm Mark. Really gotta thank him.
And I think he and YW must be thinking I'm some clown after something I told them this afternoon, which sent them laughing really loudly -.-
Me: Ay, I know a lot of taboos for on calls
M: Like?
Me: I cannot drink milo, cannot eat baos, cannot go into the last lift...
M and YW: Wah, not bad. U also know abt this...
Me: Ya, and I rather believe in it than to try it. Like that day when I was on call, I was so hungry, I went to buy a bun...then I suddenly remember buns look like baos, so I refused to eat it.
M: Buns are different from baos
Me: But they same shape what...I scared mahz...
YW: Buns are good! Should eat!!!! Baos then cannot..
M: Ya lor..buns are "mian bao"..so it's good!
YW: Yah!!! "Mian4 bao1" means "mian3 bao1"..so how can it be bad?
Me: Huh?!?!?! Really?!?!?! Wah liew...I was so hungry that day, but I avoided that bun at all costs leh...shit lor...I starved for no reason
M & YW: *laughs out loud*
M: Why u so funny one? Hahahaha...
Bet you they must have gone back to their own stations and continue laughing their ass off, and telling all the other people abt it...
