    Nice! I saw you flip flop schedules. That sucks. I like staying on nights. It lets me bicycle during the day and work at night. Or on nights like tonight where I'm trying to stabilize a diabetic dog, I can get on the exercise bike while waiting for the next blood glucose.

    OK, back at it again. Hope everyone is having a good, drama free night.

    I don't want to say anything as it's halfway through my tour...

    Even if things went downhill, probably a better night than I've had in weeks as I haven't yelled and cursed yet.

    Considering I'm not well rested as I was forced into OT this morning, that in itself is an accomplishment.

    @belimawr‌ - Now you've done it. The rest of the night is all downhill. :smile:
  • Posts: 1,155 Member
    Yep... I cursed... well, at least I lasted until 4 tonight. Usually it starts as soon as I get to work at 11pm.

    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.

    Hi all! About halfway through my double shift, trying to keep busy but also rest so I can make it through. How's everyone else's night going?
    @belimawr, has the cursing started yet? Lol
  • Posts: 8,244 Member
    I've already had to tell one client that can't sleep in the run with their pet. Is it a full moon yet?

    @cindytw actually... yeah it had. Then stopped when I said "f*** you, it's Friday night, I'm kicking back for once this week."

    Worked hard all week... a little bit less than maximum effort won't kill the place.

    I'll end up paying for that one.
