...Uh, I got nothing. (You'd think they'd know that all the good soothsayers are blind.)
Not a substitute for a formal medical consultation.I was thinking something about Oracle. Maybe they want your Solaris license number?
"Polite life will fill you full of cancer." - Iggy Pop "I've seen the future, brother, it is murder." -Leonard CohenSo, I'm subbing at a different location this week. It's outpatient, which means it's almost like a vacation compared to working at the hospital. Unfortunately, it turned into a real vacation when my one scanner went down. In the middle of an exam. Two days ago. And still no ETA on when a repair tech can come look at it, let alone when it might be fixed. And yet boss lady keeps having me order (expensive) radiotracers and not blocking the schedule "just in case" the camera magically gets fixed. So I keep having to call patients to reschedule them or get them on at other locations.

Just once more to the breech, dear friend, once more.Yeah, I thought about that Oracle too. But I'm almost 100% certain that we don't have even that.
What is oracle # supposed to be?
Who watches the watchmen?I have no idea. We ended up ordering directly from the manufacturer, so I never had to call the company to find out.
Weird. It might be some sort of internal processing code of some sort.
Who watches the watchmen?In all probability it's probably something as simple as a rogue autocorrection.
Still, the idea of numbered blind seers makes me snicker for some reason.
"Polite life will fill you full of cancer." - Iggy Pop "I've seen the future, brother, it is murder." -Leonard CohenKnowing typical bureaucracy of most businesses that would make a bit of sense. You need the seer to send you on the quest to complete the paper work correctly.
Who watches the watchmen?And, they'll still get you to fill another one in. Because reasons.
Dear geneticists,
I don't care if you found the gene for fuculose kinase in Haemophilus influenzae. You can't just go and call it "fucK". (I actually blurted, "What the Hell were they thinking?" right in front of my consultant. He was only mildly amused.)

Not a substitute for a formal medical consultation.Guess who just got let go today. Yay
At least my weekends are free, I got friends finding jobs for with them though, so that's nice.
Oh really when?I've got an interview for a new job/ sort-of-promotion on the 22nd. I don't really want it.
What I do want is the interview for the fire service on the 7th. The promotion at my current job would mean more money, but so much is changing in the organisation that I honestly think it will be a terrible place to work in the future...
...And the fire service lets me run into burning buildings and hit things with axes. That beats pretty much any other job, ever from my perspective.

Who watches the watchmen?Well this is a new mark in things I have experienced at work. Today I uttered the phrase "I need you tell me about the duck." A duck has set up a nest on one of the parking lot islands. From what I can tell it looks like a female mallard.
Who watches the watchmen?Does she have a name?
Oh really when?Well, at least it isn't a swan
If "Quackers" is in the voting pool, I'll scream. -_-

Nope no name. We are hoping she doesn't hatch some ducklings and go territorial. Supposedly either her or the male were chasing people a couple weeks back who just happened to walk by the spot.
Who watches the watchmen?...Well, if Jemima and Jason have already tried to rain havoc down on those who dare come near... that's pretty much a sign that there are eggs, there, mate. <_<
Name all the baby ducks too.
Oh really when?Euo: Or that they were trying to defend the nesting ground so the female could lay. Some think the nest was left alone for over a week.
Who watches the watchmen?Well there has been no sign of the Male but the female is steadfastly hunkered down on her nest. She doesn't seem to have left that nest in the past couple days.
Who watches the watchmen?<ding!> You've got eggs!
...if you don’t love you’re dead, and if you do, they’ll kill you for it.That is the belief. The official word is currently deferring to the property owners to decide what to do about the duck if anything.
Needless to say my report brought some amusement to folks. It ended up being shared with a few people. The guy I work most directly with the most often thought I was yanking his chain at first. He of course went out to see for himself.
So we have a Little Guard Duck Closest thing I have had to a partner or trained help on the site in a while. :P
Who watches the watchmen?
When ordering contact lenses?
