The NHS acting like Scrubs #2

Today, Doctors wanted an echocardiogram for a patient before the consultant came down. Being in a nice mood, I volunteered to walk all the way across the hospital to fetch it. It's hot, it's far and I'm sweating by the end of it, but happy to do a good deed.

It is then that the Ward Manager takes it from me and gives it to the doctors, all smiles and sunshine. I mean, I wasn't expecting global praise, but I'd like it to be known that I'd done the work. Especially since one of the SHOs is a bit on the hot side. But no, my new Ward Manager pulled a Kelso.

The plot thickens.
