crucial.....



Lem had given up his night shift….He told me after he negotiated with boss. Actually he had seen boss to submit his resignation. He had got an offer from one of our senior around the place he stayed. However when boss heard about the bad news, boss had asked to stay back – taking off all his night shift.


Well, if the request was brought up 12 months earlier, the management would have told Lem to find a job elsewhere….well, the situation had been so hazard…


Well, Lem had stayed back, for the moment…


The breaking ground ceremony of the new building would be held 2 days later….


The management had offered pure ED job(means the ED physician does not need to cover the wards complaint) currently … I had smelled and got hint from the management that they had planned to post us to the ward as night shift doctor if they got a team to take over the ED ….well, it would be sayonara then. Some of the regional hospital had posted ad for night shift attending physician/surgeon for years and not one interview had been set up... the reason is simple, someone who had the capabilities to do general ward calls, could easily cover the ED job, so why get a job which paid 40% less.


Well, the situation is obvious – we are currently(maybe for the next few months to one year…) crucial to the department…I had asked Lem if he had asked for raise and he told me no- he felt sorry as boss had to take over his call…indeed boss did more night shift than me this month….
