RE: Report from a Covid19 testing Lab - #3

in #science5 years ago

They get to check a box, and slap themselves on the back and use it for the next government give away. You would think a testing facility would be more concerned with sleep deprivation and all the effects that come with it and the mistakes that happen from over work. But they get to check that all important box in any future government give away.

Probably that, yea.

It just makes me so angry.

I tend to have a very strict routine and clean workplace setup to avoid mistakes, and in my last shift I almost threw away not one but three processed samples because I was so tired that I couldn't focus that well.

Luckily, it was only almost because I usually double and triple check after every step that I didn't do a mistake.

Sleep deprivation and exhaustion will get to people, and it will not be pretty.
