I had a few photos that didn’t really fit into my previous post so decided to create a separate one.

This was my first shift actually in the ED. I think the bottom set of scrubs were some I bought locally. Marginally better than what I was given at the end of my first week of preliminary orientation.

By now I was 1000 hours into teching. You can’t tell from this photo, but my scrubs are better fitting and I’m feeling far more comfortable in the job.

Definitely comfortable now!

While we don’t have assigned spots, I usually considered one of the spots around here as “mine”. I could usually get such a spot about 90% of the time. Why so important to me? My car was headed straight down the ramp. So by not having to back out, or come down from other areas, I could get out of the garage that much faster.

5,500 hours ago I know I would not have looked so relaxed and comfortable at work. But now, I’m definitely comfortable and relaxed. Even in the middle of a trauma. I think I’ve come pretty far. And now I set off on the next part of my journey.
