In the hospital for cardiac testing & there’s a mask mandate in place.
My chart says I’m high risk.
Tech comes in with mask under her nose.
Me: “Can you please pull up your mask I’m immune compromised.”
Her: Big sigh, pulls it up “You’ve got some serious Covid anxiety eh?”
Me: “not anxiety, I’m being rational. Colds have put me in the hospital.”
Her: Another big sigh
As I’m leaving I say: “It seems really quiet here today.”
Her: “Yeah half the staff are out sick. You’re actually lucky they didn’t cancel your appointment.”
Me: Internal shrieking
