Different Trainer

So yesterday was my first weekend shift. It was from 12PM-11PM, but I didn't show up until 3PM. Lol, it had completely slipped my mind. I had woken up around 1PM and made breakfast and stuff. As I got out of the shower, I was like, "Holy shit, I was supposed to be at work right now". Needless to say, I got dressed and drove to work.

I was assigned to a new trainer named Lauren. I think she mentioned that she trained Katherine, not entirely too sure on that. Anyhoo, Saturday was a pretty lax day comparatively. I had begun to practice documenting on a notepad and then entering in the computer system. I'm getting the hang of it, but there's still so much to learn about the whole thing. I met a lot of new people on Saturday. I guess it was because that's when most people worked, considering they are around my age but a little older.

The honorable mention of the day was a girl who came in complaining about abdominal pains. The killer here is that she said she was mainly having cold symptoms like runny nose and congestion, but nonchalantly mentions the fact that she hasn't pooped in a week. She also said that was normal for her. O_O Didn't poop for an entire week! Wouldn't you be a little freaked out by that?! I just about lost it. I couldn't get over it...I still can't.

I also think I had drank the most coffee in one day than I ever had in my life. It was three cups. It wasn't because I was tired or anything. Caffeine has minimal effect of me. The coffee just tasted sooo good. In the physician's lounge, scribes are allowed to go in on the weekends because it's not as busy I guess. Anyway, they have coffee machines that have these little one-cup packet thingies that you insert into the machine. I forget the brand name of them, but they taste amazing.

That's pretty much I had to say about Saturday I guess. It's harder to blog about it the day after, I suppose. Anyhoo, until next time.
