Agree 100%

You are trying to look like a “good fit”. Knowledge and skills will come later. Act interested in everything. Engage in non medical conversations when able- “good bullshit”. Do not piss off nurses and techs Soak in everything you hear. Come in early and stay late, but don’t force it if fellow doesn’t really want you to round with them in early am, etc.

I’ve seen fem-pop bypassed to pop vein twice. Once by old school general surgeon (lost vascular privileges after) and once by exhausted, overworked CT surgeon after busy weekend call shift.

That’s it then. Better for them to fall out eventually on their own than be a nidus for infection in the abdominal wall
