I talked to a nurse at the emergency clinic a couple of weeks ago, and she has started taking Defense Martial Art classes.
So sad it has come to this. 😥

I had a few surgeons who would help us position before surgery. But the vast majority just wanted to scream about how long it was taking you. I actually had one tell me, but it was all about them. Everything needed to focus on and roll around them. He was dead serious. Pretty sure he was the one that couldn't understand why plane couldn't be held for him at a connecting flight.
@CinnamonGirlE @Maude Dr. Mithell used to do a stand squat. My first day at a paid gig " that means doctor is ready for his chair". I'm telling you true I would have been back twisting wrenches had that wonderful woman not mangled me with a Buick, a saint I tell ya! 😂
@MidnightRider @Maude
We had an eye surgeon that always did that. And more. Better yet, you had to adjust his chair with him sitting in it!! That was fun. ANd never bothered my IBS. Not at all 😂
While fixing coffee this AM it occurred to me that AI could revolutionize medicine - or turn it into something of a dystopian nightmare. I wonder which. Sadly my money is on the later.
@CinnamonGirlE @Maude My second to last radiology gig before retirement: " Why are you taking so long to get that woman off the table"? She was 90 and dizzy, I paused before transfer to the wheelchair. Hey Dr. A why don't you come out to the parking lot and we can come to an agreement out there?
