I have not blogged much recently. What's worse - I did not switch on my computer for the past 3 days!
There is a shortage of HOs is Ortho for now. Last week there was 15 of us plus 2 taggers. This week, 17 of us plus 3 taggers. Imagine this - a few months ago, there were 40 HOs in Ortho.
The thing is, there are 5 people oncall every day, plus 2 passive call, plus 1 in short OT and 1 in long OT. So, we are almost doing EOD (every other day) calls.
Yes, I know - our numbers are much more than previously. I know that everyone did EOD calls last time, even a couple of years back.
Do you know how many times specialists and MOs have told us - 'last time we used to do EOD calls, you all are so lucky, you all are pampered bla bla bla.'
Come on la - I know you all suffered, but then is that a reason to make us suffer as well?
Just because you had to go through it last time, we have to go through it too?
Isn't this the same mentality we claim child abusers have? It is said that people who are abused tend to become abusive themselves because of their past. Same principle applies here?
Anyway, there is no use complaining - it's not like anything is going to change. It is not that I mind the calls that much, but then I really don't see the need for a passive call when we already have quite a number of calls per month. Whatever..hopefully more people enter the department soon.
Today, I learnt that a cockroach eats anything it can chew but its favorites are rotted fruits and vegetable. Cockroaches like food that contain starch. They will eat wallpaper paste, paint, bookbindings, and paper. They also like to eat the crumbs that we leave behind.
Guess it won't be easy to avoid these yucky, disgusting creatures after all. If you know a way I can get rid of cockroach, please tell me - I have had a couple of invasions recently. :(

Recently, a few questions have been popping out of my head.
One of them - what does a cockroach eat? I mean, we see them quite often at homes and shops - if we know what they feed on and can avoid that, maybe we won't see much of them, right?
So, today, I googled for it. I typed 'what does' and a list of suggestion appeared. 'What does cockroach eat' seemed to be one of the top 10 suggestion - guess quite a number of people have been curious as well.
