Schadenfreude

The sheer unadulterated glee of the colleague who deigns to give you a five minute lunch break before they leave early for their afternoon off, when you’re facing another overrunning list after finishing at 11 the night before, when they discover that your patient is still deeply paralyzed from the muscle relaxant you gave over an hour ago, and the case is about to finish.

“Ha ha! You’re such a loser!”

So gleeful, in fact, that they have to share this fact with everyone in theatre, and then everyone they meet for the next hour. Just what I need to cap off my week. Although, at least I’m not bankrupting the department with my sugammadex usage ahem.

Anyway, my Christmas tree is up so it’s not all bad.

 And here is my actual tree

Haven’t managed to persuade any surgeons to play Christmas carols in theatre so far, but I’m feeling confident for the week ahead. That’ll make the time go faster.
