JUST PLAIN BROKE
Forget about Brokeback, nowadays I am just plain broke. The chinese new year did me in. Massive Fund Hemorrhage then and so now I have to live on sunshine and fresh air. Luckily the bad weather brought along some fresh water as well. Sigh. If any of you think that being a doctor equates wealth, think again. Let see, my bank account has a grand total of RM1.24 now. Sad huh? I won't blame the bank if they want to terminate my account due to this paltry sum. Anyone want to start a charity to help poor physicians?
There is a reason for being broke... the darn financial department in my hospital hasn't paid my on call claims for the past 2 months AND they haven't paid my travel allowances as well. Curses! I practically depend on these to survive (plus a little from moonlighting some where). Where to complain ah? The STAR? SUN? MALAY MAIL? NST? KOSMO? UTUSAN, HARIAN? HARAKAH??? But it's amazing how a little money can be made to stretch when you are desperate.
I just hope, pray, wish, will it, anticipate, desire......please, please, PUHLEEEZ let the salary be out tomorrow. Sigh
Gotta go look for some one to leech on for lunch later....

Aiyo at least you are eating nice sweet stuff! Still broke, checked just now, no sign nof any payment being done. I think they are secretly trying to starve us doctors to death...
