Hamsters and Anaesthetists

Anaesthetists are just like hamsters. Bear with me on this one.

Hamsters are (generally) cute, fuzzy, quite funny to watch, and make amazing companions for small children. The same goes for Anaesthetists. The most telling point, however, is that - as those of you with hamsters will know - if you put a jam-jar on it's side in a hamster cage, the animal will instinctively use it as a toilet, thus saving you hassle in cleaning the bleddy thing out.

Once again, you can use the same principle for your anaesthetist. If you leave an inco-pad out on the work-surface, most of them will use it for preparing drugs on, rather than spreading out over the entire side of the room. The bonus is; it also makes cleaning down easier!

Downsides: there's always one b@$t@rd who will be stood right by the bin, and still throw his cr@p down the bench, rather than in the bin. Also, I work for an old boy who, rather than using my 'work-inco' for it's intended purpose, and simply stuffed it down his pants...
