What Are You Thinking?

Had a "House moment" on another board:

"Are you trained in surgery? No? Then quit your bulls*** consulting and let me see this abdomen."

Don't start with the whole IM/medical student presentation of "This is a xx-year-old male with hypertension, diabetes, heart failure, etc..." Cut the to the frakking chase and tell me why the heck you are calling me at 2am.

One line presentation, mental masturbators. One line!

"We have an old guy with free air under the diaphram,"

or

"We have a woman with a 8cm symptomatic aortic aneurysm on CT scan,"

is all I need to get moving with a bit of urgency. And I won't be annoyed at you for interrupting my dream of me on a tropical island a load of young, nubile, smart, scantily clad, open-minded women with a thing for me just as they were about ready to suggest some kinky fun on the beach.

Save your oratory orgasms until I ask for details when I see you in the ER.

Am I being a bit too cynical, or is it the fact I am getting into the "old man" range?

Maybe if I wasn't alone all this shit' wouldn't happen to me all the time. It's like I am an easy target because I am alone, maybe it's time to stop living like this.....maybe this is a wake up call......to stop wasting my life and living in this prison that I have locked myself in.

FML...so I've heard of potheads scraping bowls for resin, so for people with a raging caffeine addiction...is remaking coffee with the spent grains from yesterday the equivalent? Because if so, then I'm clearly out of control...

:wallbash:

Fucking...hmmph...whatever...complaining about it doesn't make free money fall into my checking account...there's kids orphaned in Japan and starving in third world countries, and I'm bitching about Folgers...

My mom has like 10 boxes of this fancypants coffee. She gets it in the mail.

I'm sure a couple wouldn't be noticed if they went missing. :p

My mom used to do that, she had yesterdays grains and then would add like a 1/4 scoop I guess to make it a bit stronger? or seem fresher? dont drink the stuff so I dont know for sure why. but she did it as long as I can remember....

    • ~~~~~ Yeah, thank you for the check-in.   Happy to say it was all a misunderstanding.  But she pulled out her "ghetto" and that's when things went South.  I get very professional minded when I enter into situations like that because when someone starts bring the court into conversations, I'm in court 2 times a year, every year, so don't go there with me because I will get legal all over you.   She did try to change what she thought she might have said, but I had to call her on it because it's all in written text.  Then she apologized and we were able to have a decent conversation.   I know I joke about me talking so much that people don't hear what I say except for keywords that they are looking for, but that is exactly what happened here.  She heard "payment", "money" and "help out".  It was crazy.  I literally had to have the entire conversation all over again, but I definitely condensed it to only address those 3 words.   Things are back on track, but I emphasized that if she every needed clarification for anything, please say something first instead of jumping to conclusions, then questioning that conclusion, then answering that conclusion, then getting upset at the answer and taking it out on someone who doesn't have a clue what the San Juan Hill just happened.   But this is exactly the reason I do everything with a paper trail.

    • I'm glad  that yesterday's day at work is long gone now. There was a very strong unusual energy that I felt, and couldn't get done with the day fast enough. It wasn't  the job at all. I just felt like I really needed to keep my mouth shut, to keep me from getting in situation(s) that probably wouldn't have ended well for me.  
    • You can trust anyone you want.  The only question is whether or not they're deserving of that trust. No risk = no reward.  As such you have to let yourself be vulnerable sometimes and realize that all people will let you down eventually whether it's intentional or not.  The frequency that it happens is what's important.
    • Sorry, I don't check this as often as I should. Anyway document everything (although it sounds like @Trene4000already has been from her post.) It's okay to cry and break down, but not in front of them.  Never give them the satisfaction of seeing you crack.  If anything I'd go out of my way to piss them off, but I don't like being that guy either (and as such I'm not very good at it, except sometimes when I'm not intending to be.) I try to only help those whom deserve it, but that's often hard to judge.  Seeing how someone treats other people is a pretty good indicator of whether or not they're worthy.  Sociopathic narcissistic asshats are very much not worthy. I hope things are going well for you guys.
