OR assignment

Among the 20+ volunteers in MCGH, there are only 3 of us assigned at the operating room. Siguro kase hindi kami mukhang maingay at behaved kaming tatlo. I want the OR slot kase malinis at kakaiba ang mga makikita mong mga bagay at eksena sa loob ng OR. We three were lucky to get the OR slot because this is a special area and MCGH (Mary Chiles General Hospital) is offering low training fees compared to other training hospitals. MCGH advocates harmony among their employees and health care professionals. What they're looking for in a potential applicant is a good attitude and good performance. They are not so much impressed with bookish or smart-alecking trainees. Almost all the staff in the OR emphasized to us that "don't assume; always ask first before trying to do anything, or else you're screwed; magpaka-bibo ka lang maaabsorb ka dito." So nice to hear those tips and advices. The chief nurse said that they will extend your stay into 4 months if they like your performance, otherwise, you're only given 2 months of training and then they will let you go. Hindi sila nagpapaasa or namemera lang.
