Hey, this is Dakota.

0:01.3

And this is Keon, your favorite OK-Store Time host, and we've got some great stories coming right up.

0:05.8

But before that, we have a quick two-minute break from the sponsors that keep the show alive.

0:10.3

This is an I-Heart podcast.

0:12.8

Guaranteed Human.

My coworkers refused to listen to me.

0:18.2

One question fixed it permanently.

0:23.3

How dare you? Was that the question? That was more of a statement, but you could do it as a question. That was OPE's question, I believe.

I'm gonna guess. How dare you? How dare you? Yeah, exactly. Yeah, there you go. How dare you?

And like Tracy Fitzpatrick has pointed out, we're here to give good advice goofily. But we don't have all the answers. We only know what we know. And we like to make jokes. So it's not that serious all the time, man. We're just goofy goofers, man. You want to get serious? You want to get goofy? You want to do anything? Do it in the comments. The unit was open 24 hours a day,

1:29.6

running shifts from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. to 11 p.m. to 7 p.m. to 7 a.m. for the most of the staff wanted to out to other facilities, and I was definitely in the minority on that

1:45.2

point. Most of the staff wanted to see patients from our own emergency department. Typically,

1:49.9

each staff would handle one or two cases per shift. If the patient was from our emergency
