    I've already had to tell one client that can't sleep in the run with their pet. Is it a full moon yet?

    errr did you not slag a doctor off for not letting a dogs owner do that yesterday???

    I bet your the type that shouts at the kids for drinking straight from the milk carton....then does it yourself......

    LOL. I sometimes start before I even make it to work. Like tonight when I found out one of the daytime doctors told a client she could sleep on the couch with her pet while we are trying to balance out the glucose. Now she is exhausted and misunderstanding half the stuff we say. She should have been sent home and we could have explained things to her once she was rested and the dog was stable.

    Just love the paycheck...also we work one person to a shift so if one person calls off...it potentially affects 4 other people's schedules!

    I know the feeling. We have one person per campus per shift. It's rough but I work for a health research facility so they would rather you call in if you are sick than have you show up and get everyone else sick or contaminate something. Never mind the fact that someone else's day off gets ruined or the poor soul you were supposed to relieve now has to work 16 hours...
