RT 1: Man, I need to recert my ACLS.
RT 2: That sucks. I took the hospital ACLS and it was awful…two days of testing and questions and mock codes, and they act like we’ll be the ones calling the drugs and doses.
RT 1: What I want is an ACLS class where I can show up, squeeze the ambu bag, and then leave…something easy.
RT 2: I know! They always make ACLS such a big freaking deal and I don’t know why. I just wish there was, like, a black market ACLS where you didn’t have to do anything and you could get your card.
RT 3 (looking over top of newspaper): Well…I know this guy…he can maybe hook you up…
RT 1: Ha! We need ACLS, not hookers and blow.
RT 3: Wouldn’t that make it that much better though?
RT 2: You know…that’s not a bad idea.
RT 3: You just let daddy know and I’ll get you hooked up. Say the word.
They say respiratory therapists are an interesting bunch. I couldn’t agree more…though sometimes I have to wonder about my coworkers.
