One day I'll tell you all about my typical day. Just as soon as I have one. First the crisis du jour update. One gone, two to go. One should be easy, the other... who the hell knows. Not my problem, it has been kicked "upstairs."
I sent one of our medics out of theater to get fixed. His problem is fixed and he's coming back. In the mean time out clerk, who we call Gizmo, has a problem. He could not tell me or David so he told one of the Medics who told me. He has a problem with his little boy parts. His little Gizmo is broken. I know, I know, don't get him wet. So I examined him and couldn't figure out what was wrong with him so I had David examine him. He couldn't figure it out either. He was in big time pain. We have broken Gizmo, shit. So off I go to the Role 3 to plead my case. Luckily there was a nice female Australian doctor on duty who agreed to see Giz. She wanted him premedicated, so I drugged him up and drove him down to Urgent care. She examined him. It was cute, he is Indian and couldn't stop shaking. She kept saying,"you're alright mate." I kept expecting her to order him a Fosters. I had to leave him while he got t tests. Tests on his testes. Turns out he has a hernia and will be sent home for surgery. Meanwhile I have given him more narcotics, so I am his best friend. Poor guy, he can hardly walk and his right leg kind of swings out funny when he does. Last night we had two rocket attacks and I could just imagine poor Giz hobbling down the stairs only to hear the "all clear," then hobbling back up, getting into bed then the second alarm sounds and off he goes again. Or maybe he took two tablets and slept through the whole thing. No one was hurt because of really bad aim. Let's just say that they miscalculated.
We had to do our monthly narcotic count today. I dropped 9 vials on the floor and David dropped one. All of mine didn't break but his did. Our floor now has slurred speech. When we came back the Medics had put a big "Retard" sign on our office door.
I'm the one on the left.....
