Snowman in Sungai Petani

My clinic staff is in a christmas mood already. She is going off on leave for the whole week starting tomorrow, but not before leaving me with a snowman on the side-counter in my room. It’s a simple gesture, but i guess it means she’s happy working here. Thanks, E. You have a Merry Christmas too!!

“White” Christmas

Mr. Snowman

Mr. Snowman and the candy-bowl

Update : and found on the X-ray viewing box was this.

That’s not an X-ray on the box!! Someone was up to mischief.

It turned out to be a Christmas card from the Ward 2 angels. There’s a guitar instrumental CD included. Thanks, girls. I’m listening to it now.

    just me, the sweets are for the children patients, their siblings and children of patients ….

    … and any of the staff who might be needing a sugar boost.

    LM, yup, an auspicious one, customised for the season. ;-)

    yenjai, want one?

    Wahhh…your staff really appreciate you ah..they really took the trouble to do all that!!!! Sooooooo…..bonus time coming up ah?

  13. FireHorse December 21, 2006 4:36 am

    Must be nice to be loved by your staff either that or they want to “jet” you so get bonus or next year get more pay. Just joking lah he he he
    Merry Christmas to you and your family.

    just me, not patients lah.. they won’t go and get a big card and sign it beramai-ramai like a petition liddat… haha. they are the Ward 2 staff. That’s my general ward.

    JT, haha.. they tease me. Actually they’re all younger than I (except the sister, of course) ‘cos i’m the youngest specialist there. Thanks for the sticker books, aunty.

    mott, bonus time is over already lah. but it’s not me giving the bonus…it’s the hospital management. anyway… today i belanja them the famous Kak Rock’s chocolate cake. that’s my bonus for them lerr.

    FireHorse, yes it’s nice to be loved by anyone for that matter. Hehe. Wishing you and your family a pleasant holiday and a meaningful year ahead.

    Queen, a nurse’s work is like an angel to the sick. Queen no need to be jeles of the nurses. it’s an unenviable job.

    MS CHAN LILLIAN, BLESSED CHRISTMAS TO U AND YOUR FAMILY TOO.

    MERRY CHRISTMAS, Bernard! To you and your Family.

    Hope you don’t cut off too many organs. Or should I rephrase that. Hope you cut off more organs!

  21. Bernard December 22, 2006 10:22 am

    Haha Ah Pek, thank you.
