i suspect...
the frequency with which i encounter this problem...
means that i really am unsuited to work in health.
how am i supposed to conduct myself?
i suspect the answer is to take a f*ck*ng seditive and not care already. so she takes over a month to transfer me. so f*ck*ng what. maybe after two months phone her up just to say 'hey!' and maybe she'll remember all by herself to do it... or i can think of a polite way to ask.
mostly it is about... realizing that you need to have a good 5 or 10 minutes of 'and how is your wife and your kids and your dog' because you get to have that scalpal.
but it's okay. there are checklists and stuff. you know, so you can stand around with your team and spend 5 minutes getting to know everyone and what everyone thinks they should be doing (maybe that helps those with a tendency to forget) so they know exactly what their job is - and they are being told in a way that they don't hate the big bad surgeon for asking them in particular to pass the scalpal. since, you know, every single f*ck*ng operation begins with a 5 minute speel on who the f*ck is the scalpal passer.
i suppose part of it could be about funding... it could (in this particular part of the world where - i suspect - this particular problem is far more pronounced) be about the trade-off between equality and productivity. if we are going to do operations for free (to the consumer). like hip replacements and the like... we better not be able to manage to crank out very many of them in a day...
i think sh*t like this is why a lot of older people say they wouldn't go into medicine if they had to choose again. i think they mean - the way things are now. rather than thinking back on their decision. i think they mean that the way it is practiced now... is not what they thought they were signing up for.
i...
ugh.
managing teams of idiots in a way so they don't even know they are being managed and they get to feel special and important.
without even trying to do their jobs.
f*ck*ng yay.
