SLLOOOOOOOWWW

If there really is such a thing as too slow of a day at work, and I don't believe such a thing exists, then this would be it. My production for the entire day consists of doing two circumcisions. That's it. Nothing on L&D. There's only been three patients who have even come in all day, all easily handled by the mid wife and the resident on call. I'm getting paid to sit here and get gradually stiffer as the day goes on. I'm on call tonight too. There's no way that things will be like this for a full 24 hours. After shift change at six, I'll try to do some simple stretches in my call room. That will bring them in for sure.

hey did you hear the one about the doctor who made a wallet from all of his circumcision leftovers?

when he rubbed it, it turned into a suitcase!

Ba-dump-bump!

they have issues here with streaming. affects bandwidth sytem wide. i don't know if they actually monitor for it but they have sent out e mails telling us not to stream on these computers.

i recently worked at a different hospital where they used a corporate netnanny system called Websense that significantly limited what you could access on the web. very frustratiing. it became more and more restrictive over time. by the time i stoped there, they wouldn't even allow access to blogs. kind of hard to waste company time if they won't let you use the web.

i appreciate the web freedom that i have at this hospital. i hit the links you guys put up, but i don't want to surf video and music sites. besides, i already have enough this to distract me from what i should really be doing.

What? wait a minute, will you, i'm typing. just have her breathe and don't let her push, i'm almost done. crap, everyone is so demanding. all right, guess i've got to go.
