02: Hellooooo nurse

[itsanearthghost]

Okay. I can put up with the sexist remarks from a good portion of the people here. I can deal with having to do all of these chores. I can even deal with not talking about religion.

But really, a nurse? Are the men here really so blind that they can't stand to see a woman doing a better job in the ER then themselves?

A nurse is a good job.

[itsanearthghost]

It is, but it's not one I'm trained for.

[hourai_branch]

Oh, that makes sense.

What's wrong with a woman being a nurse?

Though this town has funny ways of forcing mundane lifestyles on us. They made me a desk clerk. I don't think I worked a 9-5 job ever in my life.

[itsanearthghost]

There's nothing wrong with being a nurse, but it's not what I'm trained to do. It would be like putting a baker in charge of grilling.

Guess who likes shooting people and is actually from the 50's? This guy.

[bloodon_myknife]

What were you trained to do then?

FFFFF go get 'em.

[itsanearthghost]

Surgery.

I'm finding it frustrating, too. This sort of attitude towards women is completely foreign to me.

[itsanearthghost]

It's how things used to be, but I had hoped that humanity would move beyond it.

[akaba_ookami]

This sort of thing was normal for humans? I thought it was one of the strange unique things about Mayfield.

[itsanearthghost]

It was normal, in the past. But humans moved beyond it.

[hop_toit_udonge]

I can't tell you how happy I am to hear that.

What's your practice, dear?

[itsanearthghost]

I'm still in GP right now, but I'm pretty sure I'm going to go into surgery when I start my master's degree.

Ah, a student then? Allow me to introduce myself...

My name is Dr. Eirin Yagokoro. I specialize in pharmacology and diagnostics, though my experience allows me to work in just about any field possible.

[itsanearthghost]

It's nice to meet another doctor, especially in this place. I'm Ayako Matsuzaki.

[tohnoinversion]

You understand that men can be nurses as well, don't you?

[itsanearthghost]

I know that, but how many women doctors have you seen in this place?

[tohnoinversion]

Personally? I don't know any doctors.

[itsanearthghost]

Well you have to have been to a doctor at some point, right?
