Sometimes when you walk around "the" canteen for lunch, you see Medicine undergraduates having lunch with their stethoscopes. They would wear it around their necks, and have lunch just like that.
What the f*** is wrong with them? Do they really have no lockers or a place to put their stuffs? Hell, they weren't even carrying their school bags with them (which means their bags are left/locked up somewhere).
- You do not see Chemistry students walking around with their Pyrex Laboratory Glassware or wearing their laboratory coats.
- You do not see Computing students walking around with their keyboards and mouse (Everybody carries laptops sometimes, even non-Computing students).
- You do not see Law students walking around with their wigs and black coats.
- You do not see Mathematics students walking around holding calculators.
- You do not see English Literature students carrying volumes of literature works with them.
- You do not see Theatre Studies students carrying their theatre costumes and masks with them.
In short, of all the students milling around the canteen during lunchtime, the god-damned stethoscope is a dead-giveaway to identifying a Medicine student (short of writing the words "I AM A MEDICINE STUDENT" on their forehead).
Why, of all faculties of students, must Medicine students want to be so special?
For goodness' sake, keep the bloody stethoscope away with your bags and belongings before heading out for lunch. There is no reason to carry it around unless you practise elitism.
In a war, the first thing soldiers look for as a target of opportunity would be the medical staff (short of following the Geneva Convention). No (trainee) doctors, no help for the enemy troops.
You simply like wearing that stethoscope huh?
