I just did my fist night shift and I think I may have found my calling! everyones unconcious so they cant ask you to fluff their bloody pillows or do something they can easily do themselves, no relatives on the phone. you get to wake up doctors and treat them in much the same ways as a kitten would a ball of yarn, the majority of arrests happen at night (and call me sick, but I love participating in an arrest, especialy sucessful ones, theres no better rush)
And I spent 3 hours holding a patients hand and telling him he'd be okay as we sorted out his SOB (resps of 45-50) which is the kind of one on one care you cant give duiring the day....
yup yup yup, no more evil day light for me! I will be that strange skinny guy with skill the colour of alablaster who only comes out at night to care for the sick, sociability and friends are for the weak!!
