As I said.
>__>; There's a big difference with "common sense" and actual
business practice.
We also have 36shift hours ever 3 days and no holidays or breaks
for at least 1 year. Only allowed 15 days absence/sick leave the next 2 years.
: / So yeaaaaaaaaah....

It's not very common sense but that's how Doctors train/work here. >>;

Awww! Would you have to wear a face mask so that you don't infect other people though? Ox I hate wearing face masks...;-;
You can get PUNISHED!? emotion_0A0 what would your punishment be? Ox

Ah thank you, thank you! emotion_kirakira I might change again laterr, I've got another summer festival type avatar lined up...>w< I wanted to use the festival background from the Treehouse instead...xD
The items and recolors are awesome though! emotion_kirakira

Yeahh they're pretty okay...xD I'm not obsessed over them nor do I HAVE to have them so I'm good...xD

We technically we're not supposed to wear face masks because we're not
supposed to be "sick". >__>; But yeah I wear a face mask.
Punishment would be extended work hours after my 3 year Residency training without pay.
Less hours and more like work days.

Looking super pretty D: and Geisha-y...even more!

Ahhhhhhhhh..............
Man why does the Tanuki item have to be so expensive.
Even more expensive than normal in this hyperinflated economy.

Are you serious?! They have that little regard for human well being
that you're sot supposed to wear masks. When you're sick. In a hospital.
Where's this at?
Remind me to be sure never to go to that hospital.

What country is this in, is it in the US?
Because that would actually be a health code violation.
Wearing the mask is a part of Standard Precautions
set by the CDC, required for every aspect of health care.

But Thank You for wearing a mask.
You will be one of the few who may survive a global epidemic.
Your hospital will be part of the cause for said global epidemic.

>__>; As I said on Paper it sounds good....
but actual practice is different.
Especially when the "inspectors" are not around.

Also I live in the Philippines and our hospital is actually
internationally accredited XD (the accrediting body is the one
that is accrediting hospital in the USA so yeah...we actually
have the same policies but actual pratice...as I said
is different) >__>;

OK...but just because they're accredited doesn't change
the fact that it's been scientifically proven that
Standard Precautions(ie wearing masks) extremely reduces
the instances of spreading pathogens(ie diseases).
There's no way to get around it. That may be their policies,
somehow. But it doesn't change the fact that they are
adding to the spread of disease. I literally just had a
3 hour seminar, JUST on how diseases spread.
The different ways...do you know how far
just one sneeze can travel?
Here
That's just the quickest reference I could find.

I am a practicing and licensed Physician.
Of course I know that. emotion_eyebrow

I have spent more than 6 years in College getting: 1. Degree in Biology
and 2. A Degree in Medicine

>_>; Now I'm specializing in Pediatrics.
And Hoping to go into Infectious Subspecialization.
I spent more than a "3 hour seminar" on how diseases are transmitted.

But it does NOT change the fact that sometimes people seem to think
Doctors are inhuman robotic machines of healthcare and we don't get sick. : /

XD It's this almost inhuman expectation that doctors shouldn't get "sick"
Heck, just this morning, after my 24hour shift duty...my fellow doctor
had an arrhythmia right after we were endorsing our patients for the day
and he had to get admitted to the Cardiac Critical Care Unit. >>;
Good thing he had that episode in the hospital otherwise he could
have had a full blown heart attack and died if the arrhythmia wasn't caught in time. /le sigh

I AM KITSUNE TEAM ALSO!! 8DDDDDDDDDDD
WOOOOOOHH! Although been too busy lately/tired to actually do
the forum games. Plus...it costs gold to play X___x
and I don't have much of it again. OTL

Hahaha...I can see that you've bought a few. 8D The background looks
reallllllllyyy good. 3nodding With your current avi!

And I've had more than a 3 hour inservice too...a lot more.
The emphasis was that I had just had that particular one.
And I was never questioning your schooling or knowledge or experience,
I'm merely arguing against the hospital's practices...
which for some odd reason it almost seems like your arguing for.
Yet...not following. By your own admission.
I wasn't trying to argue with you in the first place,
yet it seems like it went that way...

And that's cool that you're a physician.

Everybody gets sick sometimes. Especially if we spread it.

And all these things have been studied and proven...
these rules have been made, yet,
we are still going to have the apocalypse
due to a global epidemic. emo
All because of "actual practice"(ie wanting more money)

I'm not exactly for them.
I am merely saying: "What looks good on paper isn't
exactly what is being practiced."
It's despicable but...>__>; Not everything in life is fair.

Ok?

Your last statement just rubbed me the wrong way because you seemed
to have assumed in:

Phelony Alastrine

I literally just had a
3 hour seminar, JUST on how diseases spread.

just one sneeze can travel?

That I didn't know this information.
And I'm not defending them. I'm just saying...that's what they're practicing
and that's how we're working. >__>; And its against their "Laws" but
people still do it. =___=

Kind of like how it's illegal to steal but people still steal anyways
as long as they can get away with it.

Like how my Co-worker was just hospitalized this morning due to an arrhythmia
brought about my stress wherein he would otherwise never be excused for absence
for anything less than something that serious.

p.s. he also had the flu and still worked through it anyways

OK. No.
You're focusing on the wrong point of the comment.
I LITERALLY JUST HAD a 3 hour seminar JUST on how diseases spread.
I am sorry if you took it the wrong way.

And it's not like I knew all of that about you.
Even if I did, it's been 3 years, I don't remember.
I'd rather talk and learn things than read so,
if you have some about me thing somewhere,
I didn't read it, sorry. I apologize, that's my bad
if you're expecting I should have. Truly, had no clue.
So, it was partly a rhetorical question.
Partly not, because you seem so serendipitous
about the not used practices of your hospital.
I know it "happens," but it shouldn't be encouraged.
The way you speak, it is downright encouraged.
IT'S A GODDAMN HOSPITAL!

I just don't get it.

They're ultra strict on the other staff like Nurses and Orderlies
and the like. However us "Doctors" seem to be treated like slaves almost. XD
So much work...and not enough rest but still expect us to manage patients as
if we're bright and sparkly every day. O__O

I'm merely stating something like a fact of the medical field in my country.

I.E. Normal Resident Doctor working hours are 36hour shift every 3 days,
with no holidays (this includes Christmas and the like) and for the first
year you can't even apply for leave. >>; Being absent also gets you extension
at the end of your training after 3 years. OTL

p.s. its on the about me post on my frontpage
plus I've talked to everyone in this thread about it for a long long time XD
even when I started med-school many years ago.

That's just sickening. And you're in with children?!
God if I had a kid in there and I found all this out...
(Again, not on your friend, on the practices...)
That's a huge liability! Liability does cost money too.
Hospitals around here...would be sued and/or shut down.
People lose licenses over that sort of thing around here.

And I had no clue you were had...degrees. gonk
Honestly, I thought you were still in school,
Doing like internship or nursing or something.
I had no clue you were a full practicing physician.
I really don't read those "about me" things.
I don't know the "about me" of people I normally meet...
So, I tend to just skip to learning the old fashioned way.
