And I just finished two 80 hour weeks on the wards and had to go to clinic today and then am on the night shift for four nights then back to clinic during the day next week. This schedule is actually insane. Humans can't switch contexts and time zones like this, it's just not how the organism is built.
I hate everything about this.

In my country someone looked into why doctors are trained with such torturous regimes and the answer was because that is how it has always been. So we still have sleep deprived junior doctors working 48 hour shifts and trained with old see one do one approach to procedures. I admire anyone who survives that process.
