5 More Reasons I Hate Being House Officer
1. Spending all night waiting for a nurse to call and tell me they have screwed something up and expect me to fix it.
2. They don't serve food after 7:30- and the house officer refrigerator is empty.
3. I'm ready to go home and I still have 1 1/2 hours to go...
4. Did I mention the nurses piss me off?
5. I'll probably waste the better part of my day off sleeping.

5 Reasons I Hate Being House Officer
1. It's boring.
2. I can't sleep at the hospital.

4. The nurses don't do what you tell them to.
5. No one knows if their patient is a DNR until they have either been unresponsive for over an hour or you have been coding them for at least 15 minutes.

My first list
Five things that irritate me about being off service.
1. Snide comments about the ER
2. Being "one upped" by the upper level resident
3. Being forced to go to Grand Rounds at lunch
4. Listening to long lectures about subjects that don't interest me
5. Staying all day with nothing to do- but you can't leave just in case something happens
