Random Thoughts

[arewethereyet]

On the spectrum of labor, I'm in the middle. There are a total of two employees, I've noticed, who will do extra work. Most everyone else are masters of appearing busy or hiding in rooms.

My wife used to work in healthcare and the stories she told me about the lengths her co-works would go to to sham out of doing work was mind-blowing.

On another note, I've spent plenty of time in a hospital bed, and my experiences with nurses and caregivers other than doctors has been almost universally positive.   It makes me wonder if the bad ones are all hiding in closets or something.

I don't know how you are, but I try real hard not to "bother" anyone.  Even after my heart attack, I was up cleaning my room a day later.

My daughter had a horrible experience after an emergency C-section followed by a second emergency surgery.  The damn day nurse even refused to give her a glass of water...that witch had better be thankful I was a thousand miles away.  There'd have been hell to pay had I been there.  

We really need to advocate for ourselves and for those who can't.
