I would like to take a moment to talk about interns and the evil little games they sometimes play.
While on call last night for peds I was trying to get my 2 hours of beauty sleep when the night float intern paged me to tell me she would like me to add one line to a discharge summary I had been updating for a patient. I would like to add that this patient is NOT going home any time in the next week. Then in the morning she was congratulating herself on how nice she was because she did not page me again when she needed a second photocopy of one of my H&Ps.
Please feel free to one up this story. And Polyanna - no I do not need to hear how wonderful and hard working interns really are or how I should feel privileged to do their scut.
