I feel like the worst at my job
Apr. 29th, 2026 11:19 pmI know I'm not. But with every passing year it's getting harder and harder to teach these kids anything. I never used to give words banks for the organ test because I figured you fucking had to know how to spell lung, heart, liver etc. They don't. Not any more.
I thought I was giving them a hand by saying the pin in the pancreas was in which gland? So the only word with gland in it on the list was cowper's gland. They couldn't figure out the pancreas was a gland (in spite of discussing in two separate units). One even argued with me that it wasn't so she was afraid her answer was wrong (it wasn't. she had pancreas). BTW the cowper's gland is at the base of the penis and they had an essay about its function.
I had a bonus question about a pregnant uterus complete with kittens and asked what was the organ these kittens were in. BRAIN. HEART. Oh fuck me. Do you have kittens growing in your brain? Might as well have.
I had the uterus also tagged in the animal and I had three people say it was the penis. I had the scrotum tagged half a dozen said it was a vagina. On the outside of the body. I'm so fucking done I don't know where you begin to fix this. And no for the most part the offenders here won't pass and I won't be letting them loose in a hospital where they'll hurt someone
Watching S6 of Inspector Gently. Mom too. She called me to tell me unfortunately John lived. You know you could almost be sympathetic to him if they didn't write him like they do. Instead, you want to slap him.
What I Just Finished Reading:
Deadly Fates - Chinese mythology inspired, I really liked it
What I am Currently Reading:
Keeper of Lonely spirits - LGBT paranormal with older mains. It was slow starting but I like it.
Dungeons and Danger - a paranormal mystery arc
What I Plan to Read Next:
Hooked on Murder - lousy so far
Death al Dente - so far terrible
The Death Card
