The "Irritating specimen"

I had a peaceful night shift yesterday, there were 3 patients in the ICU and we managed to maintain the total till this morning. I was assigned to a very sick patient, I was titrating and increasing drugs, running blood products and running fluids for her. She has got LARGE blisters all over her and its..... GROSS.... she is very sick, her condition is bad.
While I was occupied with my own work, there came an "irritating specimen". As long as we start night duty on Sun- Wed we will meet this "irriating specimen" so I met her last night. I SIMPLY CANT STAND HER, SHE IS JUST SO IRRITATING! Well, I tell you guys what she said and u people analyse.... ("IS" stands for that irritating specimen)

1) IS: Ehhhhh (shaking her butt...) Priscilla, u night uh? Oh first night uh... Ehhhh all these papers uh sticking at the counter for what uh... for what???
Me: (ROLLED EYES, CANT you read!???) Don't know....
IS: AI YOH, this report YOUR sister supposed to pass it to me, why she forgot uh??? Why?
Me: Don't know....

2) IS: Ehhhh this room 18 uh, is from Korea???? WAH... then Priscilla u know how to speak? U
should know lah hor....
Me: No, why I should know?
IS: Why dont know? We should tell the company to send staff for language courses... no
one knows how to speak then how???? Like now if u want to ask the wife to go out then
how u going to tell???? U show me, show me???
Me: Just point at her then point to the door lah!
IS: AI YOH like that so rude leh.... No I must bring up this issue then the company will
send u all for different language courses.
Me: Do u think its necessary? How many patient from Korea do u see per year?
IS: Yeah hor, u are right, u are right leh.... So smart!
Me: (You are stupid!).......

IS just cant stop talking and she just dont want to leave the counter. Hence I purposely wanted to go into my patient's room but she stopped me and asked...
3) IS: Eh Priscilla....
Me: (IRRITATED) What?
IS: You go apply for nurse manager post lah... Go... go...
Me: (CAN U PLEASE SHUT UP?!) WHAT FOR?
IS: UH... why do you talk to me like that??? What what for?
Me: Correct what, WHAT FOR?! (Ignored her and went into my patient's room!)

4) My colleague from other station came in and said all the sponging trolley has got no basin.
Colleague: Dont know who took all the basin, I need one now do you all have???
IS: UHHH all lost ah, eh you should go and report police! Call the police now, got thief!
Me: (Rolled eyes! Feel like slapping her already!)
It was meant to be a joke but I dont find it funny at all!

5) IS upset two of the staff in other station therefore she stayed at our station the whole night!
IS: This so and so ah, so petty! Dare to ask me where am I when they need me! I was busy
what!
Me: (YEah you only busy talking only!)

There were more but no mood to continue! The whole night as long as she was at the station, I will move to my patient's room eventhough my legs were tired. I rather stay in the room than listen to her "senseless" comments, sentences, remarks or whatever u wanna call it! She knows that u dont like her but she just want to irritate u and as long as u dont listen to her she will irritate u more! Sickening specimen! PHEW! Dont need to see her tonight! YEAH!

  • YA... and I worked with her 3 nights in a row last week! Luckily there's Renu and Walla to entertain her. When she appeared, I disappeared to my patient's room too! Can't stand her. Yet I can't tell her to shut up!

    Today NM Ong asked me to apply NM post too... Felt like saying "FOR WHAT?" too. But I didn't. Hee...
