Augmentation of ventilation
This was when already hard stuff started to give me a headache

I've since been practicing doodling the chemical structure of propofol.

I think it’s okay to develop a headache learning about/ going over physical concepts I’d never come across in primary school/ secondary school/ sixth form or medical school.

Need to go over preload and afterload in context of filling pressures and what affects them

Good to confirm that I did in fact know what I was getting myself into.

A colleague - on the same pay grade as me no less - tried to publicly humiliate me in an Ortho operating theatre with the words ‘you need to read books, girl’ after grilling me about medications *sigh*.

In my standard sassy fashion, I brought up Dr Google to prove that my answers were in fact correct 💁🏾‍♀️
