I promise only to share happiness and surprises on my blog, yet I can not help it. Even though this is not a sad story, but I learn something from this event. I am surprised how I can relate things to my situation, not that I set it up. It just happens.
24 years old, after all those years I have managed to keep my health and lifestyle in balance, eventually I am falling. I am falling in love, ha ha ha.. Though it is true, but here I am talking about the nature of falling, when you only have a tiny little control over your body, your endurance is weaken, your energy is drained, in a way you are ill. Now I am. Lying in the hospital room. I do not know why I am having exactly, the doctors are still trying to figure it out. I have problem in my stomach, that is all I know and all I can tell to the doctors.
Anyway, being in the hospital for three days, weak and powerless. I need help and support from everybody, like my family, the hospital staff, my boyfriend, even my phone and my Simi beary.
Talking about the hospital staff, I have always been amazed by the work of people in service industry. They are generally very attentive, helpful, patience, hospitable, and etc. But as this is my first time being hospitalized, seeing their work, and experience it myself. I am in complete awe.
I always always need help from the nurses, like for toilet, down from bed, up to bed, walk, to take meds, and many others. So I always call them, I do not want to know how many times I call per day, but they always come with a smile and ask what they can help. I know it is their job, but as I am also working in a service industry and I exactly know how it feels, so I appreciate them more. I have just realized they are dealing with more shitty situation, if I may say it. For example, like me. It is so embarrassing, but I am telling you I cannot go to the toilet myself. First there is a machine in my infuse that they need to set off and I do not have any idea how to do it, and secondly, I just cannot do it myself right at this moment. So imagine, helping people with toilet stuff, they literally need to handle shit. And it is not only me, I am sure there are at least 50 more. They also need to check us regularly in the evening, take us to some particular units in the hospital if necessary, and another duties of theirs that I am not really aware of. They need to face it day by day, even sometimes with the same patients, co-workers, and so on.
Then it makes me thinking... Their patience is amazing. Like really. I would never think they do it because it is their job and they need to do it. No! I am also working in a service industry and I raise my hat for them who work in the hospital. My daily problems working in an airline industry are nothing compare to theirs. Inside the aircraft, dealing with very slow boarding, exceed baggage, double seating passengers, unruly passengers, etc. are really nothing compare to helping change the diaper of an adult, clean puke, bath a patient, etc. For me, working as an air crew, yes I am dealing with all those stuff every single day, but in a very limited time during I help them transport my passengers from one point to another. Also, my passengers and my co-workers are changing almost daily, so there is no reason I should take something personally. But for those who work in the hospital, it is another story. Salut!
Lesson learned is doing any profession, one needs to be very determine in doing it, very into it. Especially for those who chose service industry, extra patience is needed. Then it can make bring you happiness, not because of the payment, but simply because you can see that people that you help are grateful and smiling to you.
