I'm also taking a tip from my boss, and put tonight's salad into a pita. Different!

Because books.
Jesus, ita, that's absurd. You don't register a patient for a procedure with a "well, if we have extra time" attitude.

And if multiple emergencies come up, tell the waiting patient that! "We didn't get to you" is way different from "multi-car pileup" or whatever.

Chicagoistas: you know that the CPL has a 3D printer, right?
Available for the public to use.
That is AWESOME!
ita being kept waiting all day for a scheduled procedure is the opposite of awesome. I disapprove. Heartily.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'm on hospital call until ten. WUNDERBAR.
They're "arranging some discharges" but they're not clear on if that will happen today or tomorrow.
The words they use to explain the situation really don't help much. Why do I want to be in hospital overnight if I'm not being treated until tomorrow? Because apparently you need to dibs the bed, but what was the point of scheduling an admission?

I didn't understand this when we were at the hospital with my father -- do they actually discharge people at night?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

HA. You'd think, except this is exactly what my old OB did when I was a week overdue with Dylan and he told me to come in to be induced. 8 hours in the hallway of the maternity ward while 41 weeks pregnant and my OB wasn't even at the hospital that day.
Pop quiz - guess why this doctor is no longer treating me?!

Jessica,
I was going to hazard a guess, but I don't think you included enough information in your post.
