Stupid things I have done today - so far.
Missed my bus.
Locked myself out of my office. Twice. (and had to go begging to the ward clerk to get the spare key both times).
Stabbed myself under the nail with a pushpin.
Completely failed to find a band aid (I work in a hospital for fuck's sake!)
Bled on a patients file.
The worst thing is, it's only 11:30am. If this keeps up, I'm screwed for the rest of the day. Considering I have a flight to catch this afternoon...
On the upside, hi Christmas season! I'm taking two days off work this week to go visit my Dad for the weekend. Then I'm back at work Monday, before having Christmas and Proclaimation Day off. Then it's back for two days before I fly to Canberra to go roadtripping down the coast for the weekend, taking New Years eve, New Years Day and The Day After New Years Day off to facilitate my debauchery. Then back at work for two days and it's another weekend!
Compare to the last three years where I've been doing bar work and ended up working 6 days a week through the entire season plus most of January, and I am a very happy with this whole public service bizzo. Last year I worked till 1am Christmas Eve, then every day between Christmas and NYE, then worked 3pm to 3am NYE, then started again at 10am New Years Day. This year I work 8 days between 17th December and 7th January. Speaking of which, I should probably spend some of those eight days actually, you know, working.
