Just back from a long walk on the beach to our favourite brunch place, so now hot and full and pooped. Time for a nap. Here\u2019s an old scheduling email to keep things chugging along until my next original post. Laters.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
From:<\/span><\/strong> Kirsty Jordan <\/p>\n Hi All,<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Bemused to receive a text from a reg this week detailing some sort of domestic cheese incident. Apparently it was meant for his wife \u2013 a likely story. Lucky my husband doesn\u2019t read my texts. Listen, just because I\u2019ve been to France doesn\u2019t mean I need to hear all your fromage stories. Another recent example of TMI was Chris\u2019 email last week. I was horrified. What goes on in the office stays in the office, is my rule, Chris. And that cream should settle things down as long as you don\u2019t pick at it.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n I wasn\u2019t going to mention the fame hungry Dr Sharpe with his latest stunt of fat shaming, but since he\u2019s done such a sterling job of publicizing National Anaesthesia Day in todays Dom Post, I thought I better had. All grist for the Knighthood mill I expect, Graham? Of course, I\u2019m actually going one better \u2013 I\u2019m getting a crown today. Yes, it\u2019s part two of The Pate Bites Back: The Dentists Revenge (\u201cI never wanted to get into med school anyway\u201d)<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n The recent theme in the department seems to be anguish over late running lists that \u201ceverybody knew about\u201d. Chris and I do our best to let you know about these when we hear about them. I was particularly pleased to get away on time yesterday, as I had a date with my daughters to go and see the opera Tosca. It was very enjoyable, and nice to have an opportunity to dress up for a change, but I was a bit disappointed at the lack of toe-tapping, hum-along type tunes. Puccini could learn a valuable lesson from the makers of Frozen, I feel. Yes, culture is not just something you grow in the lab, my friends!<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Monday<\/span><\/u><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n There is an orthopaedic conference going on somewhere so expect the unexpected when it comes to ortho list staffing this week. ( \u201cThe rumours are true: there are more than two antibiotics available\u201d, \u201clatest fashions in oversized gloves\u201d, \u201dHow to avoid grazed knuckles\u201d, \u201cQuestions the Stryker rep can\u2019t answer\u201d, \u201cA-systole: is it a real thing?\u201d ).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Pacemaker-orama in OT 10 today. Lucky for the wellbeing of your credit cards that magnets are out these days.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Tuesday<\/span><\/u><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n A very challenging dental list today has been moved into OT 14. If you see Drs Q or U looking glum then feel free to give them a hug and\/or jelly beans.<\/span><\/p>\n OT 8 will house bowels today instead of it\u2019s usual bones.<\/span><\/p>\n Four SMO\u2019s available this morning. According to our OPD balance sheet, we currently don\u2019t owe anyone OPD, but if you have legitimate nonclinical stuff to do, then I\u2019m afraid it\u2019s too late to ask me. Oh well, I suppose you can if you need to. Or you could ask Amanda (today\u2019s DA), she seems nice.<\/span><\/p>\n Near part 2 teaching is viva practice but it might be a better idea to get outside for some fresh air to clear your head. Just an idea.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Wednesday<\/span><\/u><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n The SHOs join SIM teaching in the afternoon, Mr D will be running through the minutiae of the machine check. Learn it quickly, people, before it all becomes redundant.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Thursday<\/span><\/u><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n I am DA, segueing (?sp) into the evening session.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Friday<\/span><\/u><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n Short today, we have a few locums so if you see familiar faces here on a day you don\u2019t normally see them, ask them to buy you lunch.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n I have to work le weekend, but I hope the rest of you have a nice break, and Allez Les Noir! As no Frenchman ever said, ever.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Just back from a long walk on the beach<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4144","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/pa8Ukf-14Q","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":10285,"url":"https:\/\/accordingtokirsty.com\/index.php\/2024\/07\/06\/old-scheduling-email-jan-19-2018\/","url_meta":{"origin":4144,"position":0},"title":"Old scheduling email Jan 19 2018","author":"Interloper11","date":"July 6, 2024","format":false,"excerpt":"We\u2019re on the final stretch.
