One of my residents was sent out to the hospital today. This evening I called over to the ER to check on how he was doing. I had to explain why I was calling about 4 different times to 4 different people.. and not one of them was polite. I was literally treated like a telemarketer.
I mean even when I'm having the worst of days.. I still manage to dig deep down and find a smidgeon of a good mood to at least smile and act humane to the person on the telephone.
Don't think thats asking for too much. My job is busy too.
