Backround.

So, as my profile says, yes, I work in a hospital.
I'm 27
I have a few friends, and one whom I've known sense grade school, and it just so happens I work with her. Ofter I get her in trouble with my pranks, along with the rest of the staff.
My boss has no idea what to make me, which I find funny.
I live in the Maritimes, and it seems everyone has the same name, mostly the boys.
Most popular names are "Gerg" "Mitchell" and "Matthew"
I happen to work with 3 Greg's ( my bosses name is Greg, go figure.)
4 Matt's
And get this, 8... yes 8.. Mitchells.
It gets very confusing at times.
I'm so thankful for my uncommon Irish name.
And the friend I was telling you about, she also has an uncommon name "Shaylie" It is also Irish, so we are not confused with anyone. Oddly enough, we are the ones to get yelled at most. It makes for a good time.
My boss Dr. Witter (or Dr. Hannibal Lecter, which ever) is in his late 30's. He's about as nice as a needle in the eye.
He's a very pushy man, always has to get what he wants from the staff, but I can respect that.
What I don't like about him most, is that stupid thing he uses sometimes to walk on.
He has a bad knee, and nothing can be done for it, so on bad days sometimes he uses a cane. Which makes everyone else's day just as rotten.
He trips us, sometimes hit's us with it, when we piss him off. It's all done in fun though (so he says) and he never hurt us with it..so we just get him back, and thats when pranks start running rampid.
The dean of our med staff (Dr. Hale) loaths all of us when this happens, because nothing gets done.
Though, Witter and I are much alike in our bedside manners. We can be nice, even sympathetic when we need to. I've seen Witter go out of his way just to make a patent happier and more comfortable.
Thats when I have the most respect for this man.
But when a patient pisses him off, watch out.
He can be a Saint, and one of the Devils little minouns.
But then again, so can I.

haha wonderful. I couldn't have said it better myself. This should prove to be interesting. Hopefully you keep this up.
