To be fair, the long hair was, if anything, promoted by me and he put up with a lot of grief from his residency PD because of it, to please me.
You have to dress up even on the wards?
So is it bc they're tired from taking call? Or the need to look like a father figure for children? Or to 100% assure repelling women?
We had to.
Yes, but we know how peer pressure works in Surgery. 😉
"Its your choice/education." 😛
They can work especially if you're wearing a skirt suit. I would advise against them with trousers and in the winter.
I'm surprised a hospital admin would make a rule about that. I understand if your scrubs were unclean, or had blood on them, etc. but in an inpatient hospital where surgical patients are sick, I doubt they care what you're wearing when they're in pain.
The phrase that used to annoy me in Surgery. I swear the guilt trips. The specialty that says that if you're q2 you miss half of the good cases.
Uhmm…its afternoon where you are isn't it? You don't sound like a surgeon if you're still wearing pajamas after noon. 😉
I think its because some were coming in on weekends wearing jeans, sweatpants etc. and its Scottsdale.
I'd expect that more from a private, community hospital for some reason vs. an AMC, where the clientele are quite different.
That's we first thought too -- that patients would just think, "Oh, he must be seeing me in between surgeries," as to why their doctor is in scrubs in clinic. Apparently not. The only thing the surgeons gave us (a little) slack on is having a 5 o'clock shadow on the rotation. It seems like a beard grows faster when you're sleep deprived.
That surprised me as well, as I used to think that surgeons could give a **** less what patients think bc their skills are irreplaceable. I was also surprised by how much surgeons are REALLY attached to their patient's care. I always had this perception before that they do their surgery thing and when they're done with their job they're done and they move on and patient follows up with their PCP. Oh, that and they always jump to doing surgery but that's actually not true either.
I stand by my comment above: you don't sound like a surgeon. 😛
AMC =/= county hospital where indigent care is provided to a different "clientele".
LOL.
Our AMC with the medical school wasn't a county hospital, but the affluent and those of middle class suburbia would eat their arm off before ever stepping into the AMC and only if they had absolutely no choice. Definitely no grand pianos or glass and ferns, but definitely a Starbucks. Varies by city I guess.
Did you sleep in those sweatpants and t-shirt? If so, then you're' still in your pajamas.
You're married?
Peds man, peds.
Bowtie + the gross peds beard.
They think they look like this:
They actually look like this:
LOL. I'm never heard of a bf/gf referred to as a significant other. I've heard it more used for spouse or fiancee (more serious relationships).
Yes and in looking at the photo (yes, I Googled it), she has a case. VH1's editors didn't blur her stuff when they were wrestling on the beach, and you got to see it all of it. They blurred when she stood back up though. Apparently she lost a boyfriend over it.
Must be weird entering "normal" life. lol. Probably a good relaxation for the brain as well. 5 years straight GS with no breakpoint? Yikes!
Yup, that's exactly what happened: http://www.lawyersandsettlements.co...t-includes-losing-ideal-jewish-boyfriend.html
Bc her contract said that her parts would be blurred, I believe. That's why she was ok with it. She happen to fall down while wrestling on the beach, and it was an editing error that her genitals were not blurred out. I guess that's worth 10 million dollars.
I usually don't hear guys use the term significant other, unless it's really serious (as in to indirectly tell a woman that's flirting with them to stop). Women, of course, I've heard them use that term much more often.
