Friday Night First Week Of Work Brandy Buzz.

Ask me anything.

Enjoying a Kahlua Toreador tonight. Brandy, Kahlua, and an egg white.

First week went well. Mostly learning the new EHR system. My schedule also included “shadowing”. But that’s for novices right out of school.

I conferred with the other providers on their cases. We exchanged clinical pearls. Learned a lot from each other.

And left early.

With my new employer, when your work is done, you go home. No need to hang around looking at the clock.

I’m very happy.

I love you all…

I grew up with my Uncle being our GP (50s). Loved the guy, except when I had to see him for shots. Jesus Christ, those heavy gauge needles were awful. Anyways, I moved from one system in So. Maine, to a different healthcare provider in Central Maine. The efficiency of both healthcare systems really amazes me.

You have reached the next level of... of...

Whatever, it's wonderful to hear that your new workplace is less stressful in some ways yet agreeable in important ways for you.

Except for the ones who are working for my new employer now.

The MA who led my medical team until 2018 is at my new clinic. Ran into him twice this week. If we can just bring over his successor, who led my team from then until just a few months ago, we’ll be an unstoppable force.

Congratulations on your new job. Though to me, I think of work more like little groups of neighbors who support their own private cult.

The fruity notes will complement the Thanksgiving meal perfectly.

But open it right before drinking, and drink it all, before air exposure ruins the body, and causes an acidic finish.
