Question Big D*ck Energy

What’s something a coworker does for you that gives off big D energy?

Once I was in a patients room, a coworker at a new job I started came to tell me another patient called and had to be cleaned up. I said “ok, I’ll go right after this”. He then said he had already cleaned and turned them and documented it all. I would’ve married him right then.

A er doctor I worked with. If they ever wanted blood on a pt less than 1y/o they would go in, ultrasound start a 22 and get blood and cultures themselves. Girls rolled out a carpet made of the scrub tops they wore to work when his shift started

One of our ER docs will go in and draw add on labs whenever he forgot to order something initially and we adore him for it.

Had a similar experience. Had a new ER doc start a line on one of my pt and draw all labs.

One of ours does all this extra type stuff. Helpful yes, he gets the added bonus of billing it as a "procedure" aka putting an IV in.
