Day 4: Liberation

     Today was an interesting day to say the least.  After being offered the job at Legacy, I had intended to finish out the week at Sandhills, you know to show good character and all that.  Mostly I didn't want to leave Amanda high and dry with a rude doctor and grueling procedures.  With this in mind, I had also told myself that I would not tolerate any more verbal abuse from the doctor, enough is enough.  I work my ass off, usually trying to cover his, and all I get for it is harrassment.  The day started out horrid!  The doctor was on my case for "dropping the ball" on contacting a sales rep to return items he no longer wanted.  Keep in mind its hard to call said rep if I'm in procedure from 0800 to 1700, with no lunch and the only break I get is to prep the room for the next patient.  Most businesses shut down their phones after 1630!  However, its ok for him to leave incomplete charts and operative notes so that we are unable to refer patients out to get the medical care they need to prevent them from needing amputations.  They probably didn't need their legs anyways...At that point my mind was made up that today would be my last day. 
     We were busy with procedures up until 1600, with no lunch.  The doctor ran to the hospital and the business manager had left to go who-knows-where.  I neatly packed up my things, made sure all my projects were completed or organized so Amanda knew what needed to be done.  I filled out my timesheet made several copies.  I placed one on the business manager's desk, gave one to Amanda just in case they decided to be spiteful and not pay me, and on the doc's desk I left a timesheet, my keys and my name badge. 
   The drive home never felt so good!  I instantly felt stress melt away.  I decided it would be ok to have a day off from the gym and be lazy!  After all, I deserved it!  I had arranged to start work at Legacy on Thursday, leaving me tomorrow to get chores done and have fun!   I played SWTOR a bit, I watched a movie had a glass of wine and now I'm planning on going to bed early!
