I agree...you come to the anesthesiology forum and expect to hear what? That everyone is glad you're acting like anesthesia providers are a bunch of slacking goof offs who just talk on their cell phones? Unless anesthesia is doing something flat out unprofessional, what does it matter as long as there's a good anesthetic? Anesthesia may not be second to second engrossed in the whole surgery ordeal, but if there's a problem, who's gonna catch it and fix it?

I know surgery and anesthesia always hope things are smooth, but if they're not...who's got access to any number of textbooks, pharm books and other pertinent info downloaded in their noggin to whip out on demand for tough situations? Just because someone may take the down time in the OR, don't assume they won't be prepared to jump in at a moments notice whenever necessary. That's what counts.
