Week 7:

Nothing in this world is constant except changes. This week has yet to be over. I just happened to be on nights out where I can muster some time to blog about the past 4 days. Exactly, there are changes all around. Just when you think you've comfortably settled down on something you think you are comfortable with, here comes constant typhoon blowing you out of your comfort zone. Just before IQA last week, our new senior medic came in, eager to change the way the medical centre is running, for the better. After the horrendous results of IQA, the changes came bigger and faster than anyone can expect or hide for shelther. It just came pouring. I was unfortunately one of the victims. Just when i thought i am the new perm MOPA, learning all the MOPA things, there came my unexpected and uninvited surprise just hours ago...I am transferred over to Dispensary Dept. And that could mean i no longer need to do PA duty. While being a Dispense medic is an easier job, i somehow feel that what i've learnt as a MOPA for the past 3 weeks have been put to waste. Hopefully they could seek my call to allow me to continue PA-ing for like 1 or 2 days a week so as to put what i've learnt to continual usage. As such, this could have mean that Baby MOPA has yet to survive the game and thus shall "restart the game" as a Baby Dispense. Darn!!!

Another thing that is bothering me and is going to continue bothering me, is the annual leave problem. Currently, we experience severe shortage of manpower. With all our ORD-ing seniors clearing their offs and leaves, there are only 7 active medics left in the medical centre. All of us 7 active medics have our own annual leaves to clear. And we know very well that in this scenario where manpower problem arise, one person's taking of cleave is at the expense of another. As such, we face the first level of problem in annual leave taking where we hardly have enough people for daily routine duty plus covers for other unit. The second level of the problem surfaces when our "fave" unit wants to indent 8 medics on the same day (some day in nov) for some impt cover (reason i shall not disclose). If we only have 7 medic with one being a service (cannot go outfield), where on earth we find 8 for them? Furthermore the 1 week long cover (same for all 8) starts on my driving test date !!! Which means i have to either cancel or postpone my driving test. This could've mean 3 months later for my driving test??? As such, we are expecting our "fave" unit to bombard us with more of these kinda things in the month of dec which means how on earth do we have time to clear our leave??? I think my annual leave sure kena eaten le.

Well, i am expecting more things to come my way. I really envy the ORD personels....

PS: I've heard Jay chou's new song "cowboy very busy"....IT SUX TO THE CORE !!! Sorry jay chou fans out there reading this...i really cannot accept his new "wang fu sound alike" song.
