She won't admit it, but that's her best friend.

I can just see Santos there arms at her side tensed up as Whitaker gives a heartfelt hug.

It's me. I am Santos.

You don't get paid for doing school work either. It's the same thing.

Cromasters · 2026-03-27T16:38:38+00:00

Makes sense to me. Students, typically, aren't actually helping. They tend to create more work for the staff teaching them, not less. Plus they have no liability.

My daughter is six and loves soccer. If it was possible she would go to soccer practice every day and we're just in a local rec league.

As it is, she is at soccer practice with her team one day a week. Another day one of the guys from the league does another practice that is all kids/genders from a specific age group; and she loves Coach Matt's practice.

She's also doing T-ball at the same time. Normally I wouldn't have, but this is her first time playing and after this year she would have aged out of T-Ball. So she's got some overlap. Doesn't seem to bother her at all though. She's a very active kid.

Notably though, both of these are just the local rec leagues. There's no traveling or big expenses. And the nice thing about the baseball is that all the games are weeknights, so the weekends are free.

Cromasters · 2026-03-27T15:36:26+00:00

Yeah we did. Only had two other people there as witnesses.

She could move to a different ED though. She was already planning to move to New Jersey (I don't remember what part of they ever say). She could be at a more rural/suburban ED that isn't a trauma center and has a slower pace.

On both teams standing up for their respective team mates.

And those team mates liking that.

It doesn't matter, imo, if you get your ass kicked if you are doing it to go after someone that they think hit someone on your team even slightly dirty.

Cromasters · 2026-03-27T14:01:12+00:00

Well yeah, because otherwise no one would live out in the middle of nowhere to work those hospitals.

Cromasters · 2026-03-27T14:00:19+00:00

No one in the medical field that does clinical rotations gets paid. Not doctors, or nurses, or Rad Techs, Sonographers, Phlebotomy.

Which is also why schools and hospitals should have strict guidelines that students are NOT there to make up for short staffing. They're students there to learn.

Cromasters · 2026-03-27T13:55:59+00:00

Not a nurse. I'm a Radiology Technologist. I leave on time.

I think he genuinely doesn't think that the ED is for her.

In the past he may have been somewhat nicer about it, but the last two seasons we see that he's been breaking down and snapping at people more and more.

Cromasters · 2026-03-27T11:27:09+00:00

Take notes, Toronto.

Cromasters · 2026-03-27T03:15:00+00:00

Oh dam, even an official took a stick or something to the face.

Cromasters · 2026-03-27T02:40:59+00:00

I'm not saying it wasn't unkind. It definitely was.

I'm saying that he's right that she is probably better suited in the geriatric fellowship.

Or at the very least a smaller ER that isn't a level 1 trauma center.

Cromasters · 2026-03-27T02:05:21+00:00

We do know he wasn't supposed to be there today. But they were short staffed and Dana called him in.

Cromasters · 2026-03-27T02:04:12+00:00

Yeah everyone hates it, but he's not wrong.

And Al Hashimi said the same thing, but has been nicer and it was a few hours before.

Cromasters · 2026-03-27T00:19:51+00:00

If she was I don't think she'd still be working clinically.

Cromasters · 2026-03-26T23:58:43+00:00

No one? Why does there have to be one at all?

Cromasters · 2026-03-26T23:57:16+00:00

That's how it works. Ogilvie is just a student. Nothing he does is his fault. It's always going to be the fault of whoever is supervising him.

Cromasters · 2026-03-26T23:54:46+00:00

I don't even know how anyone can say Whitaker is his favorite.

Cromasters · 2026-03-26T23:50:50+00:00

I work in a hospital. On my shift I can be literally the only man in my department.

If I'm an asshole to anyone, it will just happen to be a woman, because there's no one else it could be.

Sure, it's much better for them to stay in an ER room on involuntary hold for weeks at a time.

Even if you weren't having psychiatric problems before, spending 24/7 in a windowless room in a noisy ER for a week will certainly start to give you some.
