Oct. 25th, 2008 06:01 pmHow's this for a daunting sudden realization?
I work in a facility that builds lifesaving medical devices. Literally every device I touch during the course of my work day will, at some point in its service life, save someone's life.
Talk about heavy responsibility.
Luckily for me, the only steps I'm trained on have no bearing on the functionality of the damn things. I'm not sure I could handle the pressure of "If I fuck this up, somebody could die."
Maybe I'll get more used to the idea when I've been there more than a month.
