my life
Wish me luck
Today is my first day back since being suspended and they want to talk to me. It’s not looking good so far since my paycheck hasn’t come in through my direct deposit. I fear they’re going to fire me and give me my last paycheck in one fall swoop, but I still have hope, and even if I didn’t I started applying to other places. I’m just praying Hotep Harry doesn’t win because after all he’s put me through for months, wouldn’t that be the cosmic joke.
Life Update: Hotep Harry
Good News: There will no longer be Hotep Wednesdays as I finally gained the balls to request a new partner.
Bad News: Consequences of him being pissed at me. I’m not proud of it but last week I got so frustrated at him I stabbed him in the arm with a pen. He was completely within his rights to report me I just know that had I not requested another partner yesterday he wouldn’t have reported it. He had 5 days and yesterday would have been the opportune moment as he would have to work with me again, but he chose the day after. But I’m not surprised, once in a conversation we had in reference to requesting a new partner he made a thinly veiled threat to my job which at the time I wasn’t fazed because I had the recordings to back me up, but now the recordings are irrelevant. The bright side is my company values honesty and I owned up to my discretion, so no talks of firing me have happened, I’m just suspended, but I’ll take whatever the consequences are. What I did was not good or a normal reaction at all–they’re talking about assault charges which I can’t argue with, but no major damage was done, I wasn’t trying to hurt him I was just trying to get him to take my anger seriously since my words seemed to not be getting the message through to him.
I am proud to say I have work friends
Never though that would happen.
It’s May!!!! Stop with the fireworks! There’s nothing on this ordinary Tuesday worth celebrating with fireworks outside my apartment.
I passed my NREMT!!!!
Now I just gotta pay a shit ton of money and I’ll have my liscends and can be a practicing EMT.
Not a single bruise
So I’m currently training to be an EMT and yesterday for extra credit I volunteered to help with the Paramedics programs skills day which you spend either practicing to be an EMT in the field or what I did pretended to be one of their patients to practice on. In everyone of these scenarios an IV was need and they actually put them in so I spent most of yesterday getting stuck by needles and having saline injected a in me.
So this morning I checked my arms (the area I was poked) for bruising and not a single one. One of the guys said put pressure on the area at least 60 seconds after to avoid the bruising but I thought that went right out the window when a second IV in the same exact place was done, but no. Which now makes me wonder what the phlebotomist at my doctors was doing wrong because last time I went in for blood work that shit bruised and hurt for days. I was poked and proded by people just learning how to stick and I’m not even sore the next day.
