I'm Sorry What Did You Say?

There are two things you never want to hear as a Materials Manager... a. discontinued, as in "The intubation stylet 6FR has been discontinued" and 2. backorder, as in "Because that other company discontinued their 6Fr intubation stylet ours has gone on backorder"

Well fuck me... now normally this wouldn't be a problem... because there are tons of medical companies that make the same products... how many then make a 6Fr intubation stylet? Four... four man... that's ridiculous. Oh wait shit excuse me... 3 because one discontinued it... so now unfortunately for our patients until Oct 16th (when the 1st company is expected to come off backorder) patients in need of a 6fr will hjave to put up with a 8 fr (one size too big) which will leave their throat raw for days. Now why would a company do this you ask? When even if you didn't here's the answer... "We saw no need to continue to market this product as the industry is flooded with imitators and the opportunity to grab our share of the market was weak at best."

My head hurts...

You make this all go away, you make this all go away
I'm down to just one thing... and I'm starting to scare myself
"Something I Can Never Have", NIN
Oh and on a side note I personally believe he's singing to the younger more innocent version of himself in this song... not a woman, which is the common belief.
