Hey, so ya. I'm at work and I'm bored out of my freaking skull. So I thought I'd start something that I can update every night I work. I mostly work days so there won't be any need to do this. So I work 12 hour shifts, they go from 1800 - 0600 or vicea versa. I'm not sure how long this thing is gonna be, but I got sometime to kill until my relief sows up in just over an hour. So right now, it's 04:24. Yes for you little girls that is AM. We all go by military time here. Just so much less confusing for people who can't apparently tell the difference between AM and PM. But I really don't care all in all this is a pretty fun job. We get to deal with people from all sorts of walk of life. Drunks, people under the influence od alcohol, pyscopaths, you name it we get it here. I work at a hospital, and I'm in charge of the Security Personel. My job is to schedule my guys in, make sure they get paid correctlly and take care of any incidents, and to make sure my guys do their jobs. Most of them are pretty pissed that someone half their age is their Supervisor, but I have better qualifications, so they can bite me. So it's been a pretty slow night here. Nothing really has happened since around 20:30 (Subtract 12 and that's what time it was). A young girl came in and was screaming and yelling hysterically. She swung at me a few times, for what I don't know. Apparently, she had been fed and emense amount of alcohol and the date rape drug. I had to rip her out of the car and put her into a wheelchair. After about 20 minutes of fighting with her we finally got her into one of the beds. Her arms were too small for the restraints. So yours truly had to hold all of 80lbs of her down. Let me tell you something. GHB, it doesn't matter how much you weigh. That stuff can make you extremly irritable and make you think you are the hulk. But before that it makes you pass out, hense why it's called the date rape drug. But mixed with as much alcohol as she ingested, it can also be a lethal combination. Okay, so back to the story. I pretty much had to sit on her so the nurse could draw blood. After it was all over they had to give her a mild seditive to calm her down. She looked at me about an hour later and said that she was sorry for hitting me, and that she needed a hug. But, she was covered in her own vomit, so I wasn't going anywheres near her. So that was the end of that. Nothing else has really happened tonight. Of course I keep hearing these frickin' noises comming from the Morgue. And there isn't anyway in hell that I am taking my ass into their. If someone wants to steal anything from in there, go right ahead. I don't do well around dead bodies. Oh right. At around 21:40 a guy came in with a broken leg and arm. (See, first you need to understand something. When someone comes in with a broken arm, and it's the all female shift in Emergency, they call on of us down to go hold the person(s) while the doctor sets the bone back in place.) So anyways, they sat him on the table and I had to wrap my arms around this guy while the doctor put his arm back in place. The crunch that came from that was unbelievable. Next, it was time for the leg. I won't get into too much detail, but it involved pertruding bones and blood. So yeah, the doc put his leg back in place. But it must of hurt the guy, cause he got up and passed out on the floor. Breaking two fingers in the process, we had to get him back up on the table and the doctor put his fingers back in place. Dude is fine now I guess, they transferred him to another hospital, because this is just an Emergency Centre with a Morgue. So it took me a bit to type this, cause I had to go unlock a frickin' door that the nurses are too lazy to unlock themselves. But some of them are pretty hot so I really don't have a problem doing it for them. So it's 04:45 now, and it's time to start my Interior Rounds. Anyways, every night that I work I'm going to start these topics. Not because I have too, jsut because I'm bored out of my frickin' mind here. And I guarantee that not one of you has read this entire thing. But if you have, wicked. Thanks for listening to me rant for a bit. So I'll talk to y'all next time I make the NoVa's At Work topic. Later. |

Same here. I dont wanna laugh at someone getting hurt, but that guy breaking his arm and leg, getting them set and then falling and breaking his fingers is funny. |

i read the whole thing. i work at wal-mart, i'm a cashier so i don't have many interesting stories, but i will tell about the Kamakaze soda bottle. this lady was walking down the soda aisle and she reached up to get a dr.Pibb. some idiot had put a bottle laying flat ontop that one, and when she pulled it came down on her head. POP! it exploded all over her and landed spinning from the pressure. she came to the customer service desk where i was working and showed me her head, which was twice it's normal size and squirting like a pump. well not really, but it was gruesome. anyways, that's the story of the Kamakaze Pop. |

I have seen a lot of stuff since ezquisophrenics to cocaine adicts, i have seen guys that has tryed to suicide themselfs with a water recipient, but he wasnt trying to drown himself in the normal traditional way, no, he was drowing himself stand up in front of his family, he took the recipient and put it in to his head (of course that he will never get killed that way but for him he was suiciding himself)...
