An ordeal finished....

The last two days had been terribly horrible. Never ever even in my dreams, I had thought that medical examination in a government set up, a mere formality for securing admission in post graduation course, will turn out to be such a major ordeal. I have spent all years of my life after school (not that the time frame has been very extensive...but that constitutes a significant proportion of my comprehending sentient years!!) in a government medical college studying and working. It hasn’t never really been a heavy task understanding how appalling things are to get a work done in a government hospital. Everyone must have witnessed it....some or the other time....they are kinda notorious for lobbing out ill treatments here and there...only if you have gone with some personal reference, you could perhaps think of being able to surpass the callousness eventually incurred over you....otherwise, if you coincidentally get some work done properly, I must say try out somewhere else in life’s context also because you ought to be damn lucky... ;)

Knowing that we are already doctors, maximum from Delhi colleges only...these people almost didn’t care to show any reverence to exemplify the courtesy which ideally should have been bestowed upon us as a matter of similar professions. From calling us fasting at 9 AM to scolding with their eerie directions to waiting redundantly outside their MSS office amidst colossal morning OPD rush and to frivolously bamboozling us with their slowest possible efforts of finishing this rather stupid formality of examining us....they kept us lingering around for almost 7 hours till 4 PM.And not to mention that the person in authority, the very honourable Medical Staff Surgeon was fiercely irascible and looked very peevish inspite of a pretty face.

Now that it is over, I seriously keep thinking where do we as an institution go wrong in handling out these trivia despite not even being that busy in general nuisances. It’s after all not even that difficult to be able to lend out some sweet words. Just letting go off the frustration in life and maintaining endurance should help. Inevitably delaying things, reprimanding over silly stuff only brings out the worst of us. I know I’d never be that creepy or the time will tell, as my sister keeps saying.... ; )
