ununoriginalmy senior @ work is up in arms after her request to block some time off for me to settle my admin duties was rejected - surprisingly i reckon she's more pissed than me. it's a kind of relief to noe tat there's someone in the same boat as u, even further down along the path, and tat she really understands where i'm coming from. ppl might reckon it's jus paper, but these tiny bits of fluff will keep piling up until it suffocates u - i miss the days where i felt so bone-tired cuz there were jus so many patients to see.
in any case, my mood has become considerably less crappy now tat staff is more or less @ full strength, coupled with the knowledge tat one has a supportive i/c :)
so on the cab ride home with a fren-cum-colleague from a wedding dinner, i was mentioning the unpleasant past couple of weeks and how it's better now, at which she responded tat she's overloaded with patients & also taking students - so admin stress is like...? i got off b4 we got to debate further, but i guess the grass always seems greener - i dun deny tat her stress levels & physical strain is higher, but my pov is tat ultimately it's still clinical and directly related to wat we were trained to do. whereas i'm stuck performing chores tat half the time i dun see the point in doing, but have to be done aniwae cuz of one word: management.
i'd rather be stressed out while doing something i believed in, instead of having my soul sucked dry being hassled to death by tasks i dun see the significance in.
someone please transport me over the fence.
