i regretted for not able to see her difficulties. i should have been more observant. see, i can't read between the lines. you've got to tell me facts straight to me. i am not that smart. heh.
i recall discussing about theatre nurses with a friend. we claimed that theatre nurses are blunt people. =) when we said don't move means don't move. excuse me means excuse me. put means put. throw means throw. get for me scissors means get for me scissors. don't argue and act accordingly. i realised that we do not have time to speak proper English sometimes. before the sentence is finished, patient is out to recovery. =)
we have not time for, 'do you mind if you could blah blek bluk...' it would be, 'stand there!' haha.
at the end of the day, we are happy because everyone knows what to do and it is the teamwork that calls it all.
i am glad that i am treating my student nurses nicely. something that i always fear about because i am not a good person at teaching. i don't have the patience. somehow, i hope they have benefited in some ways or another. =)
a friend asked me awhile ago, 'what are you up to today?' 'nothing is up. everything is down.' =)
