Vent sesh
ya'll know I'm good at these..
So today..
Apparently technology is not on my side.
I wanted to get on my laptop and look at some stuff while at home. Hell, I even wanted to blog a little but guess what? NO. My browser was seizing up. It would connect to websites. I tried to clear the cash and cookies but guess what, NO! It did not want to respond. My poor hoarder computer does not want to let go of my nice browsing history.. time for an intervention...maybe.
which leads me to the conclusion that I should probably update my electronics this coming tax season. Why?
well my laptop is chuggin along on a very, very slow irritating path and its kinda fallin apart.
My Ipod is barely chuggin a long and its not a fan of holding a charge anymore..and my cute little laptop is very irritated with my Ipod as it takes miracles to hook it up to the computer to add songs..
And my cute little camera is also broken.. probably due to Ev and her obsession with it.
oh, and my phone.
I'm cancelling t-mobile and getting at&t and by God will I get myself a mother truckin Iphone. I'm going to hop on Iphone train ya'll. Can I a get a hoo-ha for that?!
this fiasco will be continued come March..
Then work..
Oh work..
Wednesday night. Let me tell you about Wednesday night.
So first off I get called in a couple hours early. I get there about 12:30 and I'm suppose to stay about 10.
I knew it was going to be one of those days because the phone was ringing off the hook yet again. We had a belligerent drunk guy who admitted then a few hospital transfer. Another clue to an awful day is the fact that NO ONE and I mean NO ONE I work with will answer their phones. No one will pick up calls, answer pages NOTHING. Fucking irritating. That's all there is to say about that.
One good thing was the meeting was cancelled so that means I wouldn't have to stay so late, yay! I asked my boss to make sure that would be fine but of course I have to stay and make these stupid fucking binders. Why do I have to do it? Oh, well because NO one else will make them. I get all of the work that no one wants to do, along with all of the other work we have to do. Probably cause I'm here the majority of my life but seriously? I'm not the only receptionist here..
but I didn't end up making those stupid fucking binders.. why? let me break it down
- We had 10, I repeat TEN new admits within the hours of 5-10.
- One of those admits happened to be 8 months prego and thought they were in labor. yay 911 time!
- one of the patients was an insane lady who was screaming, yelling, rolling on the floor crying. Just freaking the fuck out basically. She tried to escape and I had to lock the doors since she let it slip she was suicidal. and I thought that she was going to beat me up because I locked it. all the while her husband is standing there all stoic like. Later she calmed down and apologized but yeah and that was about an hour plus worth of listening to that because there 2 other patients that were before her and then 2 hospital transfer came while she was waiting..
- I had a lady who I could guess was on something, I would say meth but I don't know for sure. Trying to visit her son on the wrong god damn night and she wouldn't leave me alone. She haunted the waiting room for an hour yelling about how she stopped his relationship and didn't want his girlfriend calling here.. and she kept saying how he's autistic and she didn't believe that we knew that and that we would know how to work with that.. hmm. Then she kept repaeating that she was his legal gaurdian, his MOTHER. over and over. GOT IT! Then she mentioned how she was held hostage for 30 days and beaten and stuff by her ex-boyfriend.. UHH..( not to mention the fact that NO one from nursing would talk to this lady or help me out, cool move guys!)
- Back on the unit (I did not have to deal with this but it affected getting help with anyone on the unit) they had a patient try to hang themselves with a shower curtain. Was there a full moon or something?
- Then there were people coming in to talk to the nurses cause they "were in the neighborhood" and thought they drop by. Uh, yeah bad timing. The intake worker couldn't even get a nurse to help for the pregnant admit..soo good luck.
- Not only that, but the phones continued to ring of the hook...
- and I had to make fucking packets because NO one else had made packets .
and I left an hour late...
buuuuut on the brightside.. I got a TON of compliments today for how I reacted to the situation! I had the director of intake tell me, A lady in our marketing department, the CFO and even the CEO. I'm way proud! and that definetly lifted my spirits a bit. :)
but then today I got called in WAY early. Last night I went to the breaking dawn premiere (more on that in a minute) so I was SUPER tired. Plus its payday and I need to go to the store and Rachel wanted me to come and see her for a minute and my mom went to old navy. Just a TON of stuff I could have done that I didn't get to because I went to work. (although I had my mom pick me up some pants I wanted) I'll just go to the store tomorrow..
but as soon as I walked in it was CHAOS again.
and you wouldn't believe who was in the waiting room AGAIN
yeah, that lady..
going off AGAIN about autism and her son and she's his legal guardian and MOTHER..
Serioulsy the phone is off the hook, a million people coming by asking for this and that
and then..
I get a kid who came in to pick up a wallet for a former patient. Okay, fine. I called back and asked if they had it. Apparently they left it with "the red-headed one" yesterday. Well let me tell ya somthing, I'm the ONLY red-headed receptionist. The ONLY. I also happen to NOT work Thursdays. I wasn't even in SLC yesterday (until later in the evening) So no, you did not give me a wallet yesterday. Then they said it was the one with the longer dark brown hair. Well there's 3 girls who work upfront who fit that description and they all said NO, they did not recieve a wallet. So here I am searching high and low because I have NO idea where this wallet is. but I guess it ended up going back upstairs.. everyone was just too lazy to really look for it. UGH. Thats another thing that frustrates me about this place sometimes.
but I must say the fact that no one answers the f-ing phone pisses me off the most!!!
but anyways..my vent sesh is now over and I'll leave with a brighter note
I went to the breaking dawn premiere. My aunts always go and I always go with them. I'm not way into the movies or books but its fun and I was interested to see the end of the movie. It's a really cheesy film but it did have a good twist at the end that made it good! So I was glad I got to go and hang out with my family for a night! Although I missed Ev, of course.
but this morning my mom let me sleep in a little bit (thank god!) but when I got up, Ev's face lit up so bright! She pretty muched jumped into my arms and hugged and snuggled me for a minute. It was so awesome! I can't even tell you how great of a feeling that is! Just to have your baby so happy that your there! I'm going to make myself cry just thinking about it! Then she crawled around a little bit and then came to snuggle me! She was tired so that's why but still she wanted to snuggle and I love snuggling Miss Ev! I was so bummed I couldn't spend the day with that litttle stink.
One thing thats amazed me the past couple of days is how smart she is!
She knows who all of the dogs are. You ask her where stew is, and she points to him, you ask her where Jager is and she'll point..and same with sass! She said, well attempted to say froot loop yesterday. It came out as "froo" and she said cookie. If you ask her what a cat say she'll say "mo mo" and if you ask her what an owl says she say "oo oo" SO damn cute! She also happens to know what boobies are. I told her to kiss boo boo (nick name for my dog Stew) and she walked over and pinched my pinched my boob. (she knows what boobies are because she always trys to grab my phone out of my bra) It just amazes me how much she knows and how much she is learning everyday! I just LOVE that girl. I'm too obsessed if ya haven't noticed lol.
