February 13 - This ain't no candy-striping!

Episode watched: None

In my life I have two people close to me who work in the medical field, my brother being a doctor and my good friend a PA. My PA friend gave me a call today to catch up on life; he told me about all the ridiculous things he has done at work lately, the crazy hours and the less than normal patients. Between his and my brother's stories, I now understand for many reasons why I never got into the medical field. I'm guess that when Lisa was a candy-striper and working for her mom at the hospital that she never saw half the stuff either of these two people saw. Zack's broken leg? That's a cakewalk compared to the burn unit or the maternity ward.

Lesson learned: Worst time to work at a University-based hospital? August = drunk freshmen.
