Learning How To Live Life

If any one is wondering how my day is going, some patient decided to throw up on the sidewalk outside the entrance to the unit.

Could've had a barf bag but noooooo let's puke where ppl can step in it and not tell anyone to get it cleaned up. Grr!

I hate when ppl do that! It's so incredibly rude!
 

I don't think people "decide" to throw up. Yuck. And a barf bag may not be available.

Cleaning it up, however, is certainly not pleasant. If it's outside, wouldn't that be maintenance or as we called them, plant and engineering dept?

He had a bag in his hand. He still chose the sidewalk outside the door. His friend didn't bother to tell anyone so we could clean it up.

And depending on certain circumstances yes it's a maintenance call. If it's not bad then it's me.

I chased a fella around waiting room for 45 min one night cuz he was bleeding and wouldn't sit still and was getting it everywhere.

He then got blood all over my freshly cleaned bathroom. Then got smart mouth with me when I asked nicely to stay put. One of the other patients told him he'd best do what I asked.

I guess the look on my face told him he was on thin ice. LOL

I know and I agree with marci, that It's an extremely tough place to work.!!
And some of the people who could make it a bit easier , instead make it harder.
Some can't help it, but some can.

That's funny, and also good help, that one patient told the other patient, to follow instructions. 😊😁
 
@Kaila no it didn't freeze. It's supposed to get to 60 today.

Doc and I had a good talk today and he's sending over a script for Buspar to the pharmacy. He's labeling it 1 pill twice daily but, I will be able to split it in half or take a whole pill only as needed if I wish to. He said typically it's not taken that way but he has other patients with anxiety that do that and he said if it works he's ok with it. Also said the Buspar is less of a breathing issue than the others so I will be ok. I told him I was gonna finish the valium before I start on the other and he said that was ok too. ☺️

He said once we get things more settled down for me we could take a look at my sinus problem and see what's up with that. That will be a project for the new year. There's also some respiratory crap going around at work so IDK.

None of us that work in hospitals and deal with certain types of patients are saints. Some days we wanna strangle people just like anyone else when people act like turds. Some can't help it but some know better and still choose to be like that. I wish I could say we were all hearts and flowers with patients but we have bad days too.

So the last time I played Fortnite, I was shooting at a person and they were taking absolutely no damage. Then they killed me. So I got to looking online and discovered other people are having the same issues. They were saying they think Epic knows about all this cheating and they can't seem to get it under control so they no longer give a crap. I tend to agree. I have never seen so much cheating in my life. That's why I quit playing. Who wants to play a game where others are too s****y to use their own skills and have to cheat to win?

And it's not just Fortnite, it's all the shooter games. They're just no fun anymore. I can't wait to get off work tonight and go island looting for more Animal Crossing stuff. I'm gonna do my best to design my island in pink and white. I saw where someone made a Monopoly game board around their Resident Services building. So cool. I had started on an Alice in Wonderland island but never finished. Maybe I can try again after this one.
 
That is good to hear that you had good communication with your doctor!!!
wow. I'm glad.
It sounded like responsive and helpful, and even flexible and supportive to your needs, both short-term and longer.
gosh, why am i shocked at such behavior from the doctor? 😄 :sneaky: :giggle:
