No doubt free lunches are provided by drug reps and during weekly teachings, but with the same type of food everytime, there must come a point where we get sick of it and subsequently develop a phobia.
Having spent so many years in the UK, western food has become something I'll violently object to if someone suggests it when taking me out for a meal back home. I know it's rude to go "Can u not have western food pleeeeaaasssseeee?" if someone's treating u, but with sandwiches like at least 3 times a week for so many years, I can't put myself through swallowing more of the gunk. Fortunately, Dearie HATES western food, or else it'll be a torture having him bringing me for western dinner with the typical thought of ppl these days that it's meant to be high-class and romantic. I think I would rather find a plate of roasted chicken rice and a glass of soya bean more romantic that slicing up a steak.
It sucks when your tummy is grumbling during the ward round, and u're kinda losing it since your brain has decided to go on strike frm starvation, your legs are sore frm all the climbing of stairs n endless walking (if there's a walking competition, doctors r bound to win), and your patience is put to the test with a patient screaming. The ONLY thing that gets you excited is a nice lunch, only to realise that it's "Sandwich Day" again.
Then u decided to be cheeky, and skip teaching to avoid sandwiches, happily going to the canteen, hoping to find something nice to fill the tummy. And...
TAaaaaaaDaaaaaa!!!!
In front of u is a menu with a list of sucky food that honestly, isn't appetising and not really fit for proper human consumption. Makes me wonder how the British live with food like this for the rest of their lives. Do they even care abt what goes in? Or food is just.....foood?
I can just about imagine how overjoyed I'll be when I get back to Sg. At least having fishball noodles for lunch everyday beats having the crap I'm eating here.
How not to get depressed in this place huh? How can I even put on any weight here?
