And when I'm working, it's myself and one other registrar covering 26 rooms, plus three triage rooms, plus 6 treatment areas, Plus anyone they decided to stick on a bed in the hall in front of rooms, plus admissions, plus authorizations, plus transfers, plus hospice, plus phones. Add it all up and it's 12 hours of hectic chaos that leaves little time to text.

It's understandable. For the most part, I'm not busy....but when I am, I can't even get up to go pee! And that's the truth! I've almost cried I had to go so bad before I could finally walk away for even a minute. No texting at that time for me either.
