The work schedule of a medical provider can sometimes be......challenging...

[Aristus]

I had the day off today, but I'm on call tonight, and tomorrow morning until 8am, which is when I start a full day of clinic. Sunday off, then back to the grind on Monday...

Hoping for a quiet Saturday...

How is everybody tonight?

1. Hi, Aristus!

Do you do your "on call" at the clinic? Hope you get some sleep before putting in a shift tomorrow!

I'm just hanging out, drinkin' a little vino, watching the tube...

4. No, I pull call from home. And now I feel a little sheepish about my shift.

I complained in advance, and it turns out, unnecessarily. Friday night and Saturday morning were very quiet. One of the few times I've pulled call when I didn't get a single call. It was nice; it allowed me to rest up for what turned out to be a pretty busy Saturday.

Hope your Friday night was enjoyable...

2. Sick. How do you know if you have pneumonia?

No, I'm kidding. Damn this virus is a bugger though! Are there scads of people coming through with the cough from hell that won't go away?

Otherwise, it's February, the month when therapists get a bazillion calls because, you know, it's February in the PNW. My business is hopping.

3. Damn! You have the Cough That Won't Leave, too?

Oy! My sweetie & I keep passing this back & forth. I'm doing good now, but he's coughing like mad.

Take care, feel better.

edited to add -
That's a brutal schedule, Aristus. Reminds me of the days & nights my cousin put in when he was in med school.

5. I know. It's everywhere. I'll be okay if I don't wet my pants!

Aristus? Hello?

6. I'm sorry I didn't reply sooner, nolabear.

Work all day, play (rehearsals) all night. Never any time for DU anymore...
