Clinicals

I am currently working at Salt Lake Regional Medical Center. It isn't really a job though because I don't get paid, I actually pay tuition to work 8 hours a day. I love it though. There is the occasional crazy doctor though. I worked with one surgeon yesterday who is definitely the most inappropriate old man I've ever met, aside from my grandpa, but I won't get into that. Anyway, he was arguing with all of us in the OR that he is metrosexual. He is anything but. It was hilarious though because all of us were just laughing. The anesthesiologist pointed out that metrosexual people would probably not wear cowboy boots. (He wears them every day) He then agreed and said "My wife says if I was a metrosexual I would have my [inappropriate wrinkly body parts] removed" His actual quote was much more descriptive and inappropriate. He then asked what the exact definition of metrosexual was and the nurse explained "I would say it is a person having many of the gay qualities without actually being gay" To which the doctor replied "I would like to think I have many of the positive gay qualities" Later he was telling me that after he got divorced he was "against girls for like 4 1/2.....hours" and then he met his new wife at Lake Powell. He used his son to hit on her and yelled over to her while she was in another boat to say she had a nice body. She replied "Thanks but I need to lose about 10 pounds to look my est. To which he resonded "You should only lose five!" Which of course he thought was a compliment. It was kind of a you-have-to-be-there type of moments but all of us were hysterically laughing.
