tonight is definitely a one pee night. that means that in 12 hours (13 if you count coming in early & leaving late), I was able to pee one time. rather generous, dont you think?
so I get an email prior to work tonight that the hospital is on lockdown. that means no one in, no one out. multiple news vans outside as I walk up...30 cop cars. had to show my badge and go through the metal detector just to get into my own department.
the reason was a gang shooting with 10+ victims, all in my ER. super!
so I getto work (I was trauma float tonight...I'll explain all this later) so I had my fill of trashy south-county residents with their badly spelled tattoos and meth mouthed baby mama's. they were all gone by 2am.....
....only to be replaced with 4+ different gang related shooting victim. this happened in one of our fine casinos, again located in one of the southern counties whic has a high population of people with badly spelled tattoos and meth mouthed baby mamas...
so it's 5am...I've been here for 10.5 hours and am just getting my lunch. of course it's too late to eat the fabulous tilipia I made for dinner...I'm starving, but I'll be all bloated and fatty when I get home and try to sleep if I ate that shit now.
so legally I'm supposed to get 30 min lunch and 2 15 min breaks for my 12 hr shift. I'm lucky if I get 1 15. lunch is a fleeting fancy and I better not think of peeing j less every base is covered. if I'm missing off the floor, there will be hell to pay.
and now, my generous 30 minute lunch is over. Im dehydrated, my bladder is the size of my old jetta wagon, and I'm about to eat my shoe. and stil 2 more hours to go....
