Today, I'm doing an assessment, and this patient is trying to convince me why I need to let him leave rightnow, because of course his being there is completely a mistake and it's all been a big misunderstanding (oh, it always is), and in his attempt to sway me, he says, "Now, I know you went to medical school and I respect that and all, but I made it through a whole year of junior college and I had a B average, so let me tell you...."
Ohhh. Sorry. Here, let me just hand you the keys to the unit. My mistake.
Then again, think maybe he'd take some of my call next week?

They keep things interesting huh?
