=[L]ing 的无聊日记=

AHh.. .. another week has passed.. I am getting more familiar with my job and more shou with the colleagues.. but, i am also getting more and more weird weird cases too..

Updates of the week..

Tues: A scare
My work at the hospital involves interviewing patients and assessing their financial status. Due to the group that I am in, I will get to interview psy patients. So as usual, I invite the patient into the counselling room

Me: You can take a seat over here, Mr X.
Mr X: Ok. Can you close the door?
Me: (SHOCKED). (Answered immediately) Sorry. I don't think so.
Mr X: Oh. it's ok then.

During the conversation, I found out that his condition is actually depression and mood swings.
Conclusion: That's how we always stereotype psy patients. Psy doesn't mean that they are "crazy" and will anyhow attack people. Psy conditions include a lot of things like depression, mood swings, OCD, anxiety disorder, phobia and the famous + stereotyped schizophrenia..



Wed: Jolin Tsai Showcase @ Zuok




All thanks to Mingrong and her UNDER-AGED sis.. Once again, i want to say, this photo is taken by my phone camera in the dark dark Zuok!!! **PROUDS**


Thurs: Another scare
The counter people always like to scare me.. This time is a ex-member of secret society.. And after i met Ming Rong yesterday and told her my experience about the psy patient, she reminded me of the safety plan -- to sit near the door.
So this time, i chose a seat nearest to the door. but i didn't bring the panic button (SHUCKS).

Aiyah.. is another scare loh. this patient is actually quite a nice person to talk to. He told me a story:

X was a ex-inmate. He was lucky enough to find himself a job as a outdoor salesman.
On his first day of work, he went door to door to sell his product. He pressed the doorbell of the first house.
"DIng Dong"
"DIng Dong"

A lady opened the door. She saw X and of course, the tatoos on his hand. She asked loudly,
"Why you press my doorbell??!!"
"Doorbell is for people to press one right??!!"


X is being strongly stereotyped loh. Just coz of his tatoos and probably the quite fierce look, he cannot press poeple's door bells..
How are the ex-offenders going to find a job and prove others wrong when people don't even give them a chance to prove?
That's how 现实 the society is. You see people buying all the Yellow Ribbon but how many of them are actually giving them a chance?


Fri: Sparrowhawk Exercise II
Every hospital has to go through Sparrowhawk Exercise II today from 11am to 3pm.. Which means, you have to wear the famous N95 mask if you have contact with patients..
Which means, I have to wear N95 mask from 11am to 3pm while interviewing patients..
First of all, the mask is quite difficult to wear.. dunno is coz i have a small head, or a pair of too flexible ears, that the mask keep slipping off my head.. and it took 2 people to help me wear my mask..
the feeling is not quite nice, coz u are inhaling and exhaling warm air.. if you let out a deep breathe, your specs will be misted.. that's how warm ur breathe is..
and now, i think i have a pimple due to the mask..
