AWESOME, FUNNY, LABORATORY, MEDICAL OFFICE, PATIENTS, PENNSYLVANIA, USA | HEALTHY | JUNE 23, 2021
I am working as a phlebotomist at a labcorp. That means I’m the guy that draws your blood whenever you need it done for some sort of test. The latest person I’m drawing blood from is polite with a decent sense of humor and doesn’t freak out at the idea of having blood drawn, so generally, I consider him a decent customer.
Me: “Apply pressure here, please.”
Patient: “Okay. I guess you’re almost done with me, huh?”
Me: “Just about.”
Patient: “Lucky you. Most people agree five minutes of dealing with me is about the most anyone should have to endure.”
Me: “Oh, that’s not fair. I didn’t mind drawing for you at all.”
Patient: “I guess I can understand that. I mean, most people I meet end up wanting to stab me, but you’re one of the few that actually gets to do it! Must be very therapeutic, huh?”
Me: “Yep, stabbing people for fun and profit — what’s not to love about this job?”
Patient: “That’s the spirit! Have a good day now. Enjoy making people bleed.”
Me: “Oh, I will, I promise.”
