Give me a list of vacation times you want for the next year.  And then we will process that, randomize it and plan out the next year of your life for you.  Yay, a vacation in the middle february. 

Oh yeah and you can only take a vacation on your easy rotations.  The hard rotations you get no break from.

Residents have a recommended cap of 80 hours a week.  Huh !!!!! 80 hours a week.  well that’s another issue.  their is a governing body that watches hospitals and how long their residents are working.  Mainly try to keep them as close to 80 as possible.  Oh there are wonderful hospitals out there that skirt the rule but those are run by Satan’s children and i will hit those later.

Now fellows on the other hand have no governing body to look over hospital shoulder’s to make sure they are giving their fellows enough sleep. SLEEP or DOWN TIME.  isn’t it the medical community that recommends 8 hours of sleep a night.  With all of that said fellows can work easily 100 hours a week due to this lack of regulation.  so for those math geeks out there if a fellow is getting 8 hrs of sleep a night and is working 100 hrs a week that only leaves them 12 hours to eat, shower, do chores, have sex, and turn their brain off.

What the fuck.  That is just wrong and every union man or women knows it.  In fact every other American would throw a fit if that was what they had to work.  and with nobody to complain to all you can do is write letters and make your program look bad which makes you look bad and the vicious cycles ends with exhausted spiteful fellows roaming the halls of hospitals in a mistake waiting to happen scenario. 

Ahhhhhhh

I get the crazy families that hold their babies by one arm. Let their kids drink 20 cans  of soda a day.  Don’t cloth their kids. Let their kids roll around and piss on the floor in the examination rooms.  All while the attending take the families that request me because they are nice families or good patients and they know they will have a good conversation and be done close to on time.  Attendings and residents should share the crappy ones not just unload them on the residents

Some attending suck

The Flogging a dead horse one just applies to life.  And the old school medical Goerge W is an instant cissic.

Funny Lunesta commercial

Sitting next to a doctor while watching medical commercials is fun.  becuase they laugh at stuff and the rest of the world has no idea what is going on.  then they explain themslves and you are even more clueless.
