The 175(duty room was) never a good place to live, however there was another place which is more inhuman……from the ED to the 175, there was this corridor; the doctor had to walk through the corridor to reach the ED. The 175 had a big window which face toward the corridor. The corridor is also the resting area of the cleaner.
The hospital cleaning service is contracted to a company. The boss had hired a group of ladies mostly aborigine and foreigner bride with a very low pay. The cleaners use to meet at the outside the 175 during the morning pass over. The boss was so kind to put 2 folding chairs cum beds outside the 175 for the cleaner to take a nap or rest.
In the night, I had to walk slowly without making noise as the cleaner on duty slept outside the 175
Life is so unfair. I told myself when I took the long walk in the night. Both doing night shift and the prey was so different. I am at the mercy and grace of the LORD…
