the 100% directionless thread

Now, my original thought: run him over in my district, I need more trauma in my life.

I agree. We talked about it today and one of the "bad" calls I haven't seen yet is a multisystems trauma.

Had the arrest, had the pedi arrest, had a couple wicked breathers, had a chest painer that turned into a STEMI in the ER (only had depression in the field so no pre-alert), had a hemorrhagic stroke, had a thrombolitic stroke, had bilateral brain aneurysms, had the hypotensive septic pt, done a fair share of conscious sedation calls but no multisystems trauma.

Best part is all of this is in 3 weeks of internship. I am the definition of a black cloud and the talk is that my preceptor is passing his black cloud torch to me. I'll take it as long as I can pass it to an intern in the future

Eh, I am the complete opposite. I am the super white cloud, not even jinxing us works. I suppose it is for the best, never want to wish anyone harm anyways.

I don't ever really want someone to get really hurt or injured but I do like to be around when it does happen. Except for kids. I'm getting better with them but they still get me a bit.

Although I could go the rest of my career without another pediatric arrest and be perfectly fine with that. Unfortunately at the pace I'm going it doesn't sound like I will be so lucky.

Had a motorcycle accident today. Came out priority one as "pt thrown from his bike". Turned out he was at a stop and got bumped at <5 mph from behind and fell over. Couple scrapes but nothing serious.

Think of it this way. Someone is going to get messed up somewhere at some time isn't better that it happens while you're there rather than some less enthusiastic provider

You know you've had a stressful week when you're a grown *** man and a song comes on the radio that makes you start bawling on your drive home. For like no reason at all.

What the heck?

Yeah but that's Johnny man. He could make Hitler get all maudlin and weepy. Stay strong.

Do yourself a favor, Google "Zerg Rush"

It's not nice to give CL's flashbacks!

 

[firetender]

Nothing wrong. I just prefer to look at men without pants on.

If you're going to look at me I'd prefer you put your pants back on.

 

[Sasha]

It's amazing the people who promise they are different are the ones who hurt you the most.

 

[Anjel]

My pants on. Their pants off lol

 

[abckidsmom]

And with absolutely no fanfare, we now have our 25,000th post of this thread.

I should get a sticker or something. Where's the carrot in this place???

Been there, just with a different song. I'm really sorry you're having a crappy week Adam.

 

[fast65]

It seems it's my supervisors goal this week to see just how much he can piss me off.

And speaking of no pants, my roommate is, for some reason, no wearing his pants. :huh:

 

[Anjel]

Nothing like having an 8 y.o beg you to save their grandma who was just pronounced.

:-/ Not something I think I will get used to.

That song, especially the last verse, makes me well up no matter what the day.

 

[shfd739]

Covering today for 4 hours is actually gonna be 6+ hours. After getting my butt handed to me for the last 2 days.

It all gets better in a week when I change areas. Can't wait to get to the pool tonight and start drinking.

 

[NomadicMedic]

Working OT again. I'm glad to make the extra money, but I'm starting to get a tiny bit fried.

Clearly you missed the "grown *** man" part of my post

I suppose it was about time for my annual tear-letting, gotta keep those ducts drained out or you could get some increased ICP. Feels good, y'know?

Dammit, I'm a man!

I so want to make a comment about having used an argument similar to this on a date once but I won't because I have to set an example.
