Getting Hammered

I’ve been getting hammered at work. My shift 930-2130 has no down time. You come in, you start doing calls and you don’t stop till its time to go home. Did eight today. A psych who was hearing voices telling him to stab himself, a young boy who choked on a vitamin, but was okay, a crack addict with pleuritic chest pain, an old woman in a doctor’s office who has altered LOC, a nursing home patient with abdominal pain, a woman who fell and bruised her ribs, a motorcycle accident, and a syncope.

Days like today I don’t know home much longer I can keep up this schedule.
