In the ot.

In the ot the other day -

Me assisting an op, holding the sucker.
Dr L: May, suck.
Me: ok, I suck.
Dr L: Hold my drill.
Me: ok, I'll hold your drill.

To which he turned over and asked me: may are you being naughty?? I of course denied, innocently.

Bwahahahahha. I think I was just being punny you know! Ok la funny too. Maybe inappropriate but Hey..... Its orthopedics. I did actually think I was rather witty. Huhuhu

Also that when they say: u suck and I say I suck - not the literal sense but as in u stink kinda suck! So funny no?

In the ot on the same day, assisting another op, where the pt is an obese old lady and we had to cut her thigh open to insert a screw.

Me: so deep in (refering to the incision we made n how far we have to dig in thru the layers and esply the reallllly thick fat layer)
Dr L: is it good?
Thinking if I shud make another witty comment but Its too late..
Me: it should be.......

Fail.
Fail.
Fail.

No one will ever ever take me seriously anymore. Not if I keep coming up w all these ridiculous (but wittyyyy) come backs. Noooooooo

Unsophisticated jokes aside, aren't some of the ortho specialist / surgeons such a charmmmmm! Sigh. English-proficient skillful smart soft spoken middle aged yet ageing so gracefullyyyyy. Sigh I'm so sold. *smacks self*

So not looking forward to work tmrw. Absolutely dread d wards. Love the ot n clinic hrs though.
