TOP 10 REASONS FOR EMERGENCY LEAVE

  1. Maid ran away
  2. Train new maid
  3. New maid ran away
  4. Kad ATM patah, need to go to bank
  5. Grandmother died (for the third time this year)
  6. Ran over a cat, need to send car to carwash (to remove evidence)
  7. Tap burst, house flooded
  8. Kad ATM baru sudah ready, need to go to bank again
  9. Car window jammed, can't wind up
  10. Maid came back, pregnant

Some are genuine, some are not. Obviously some are made up by me.

No. 6 happened to me last year...I ran over a cat in front of the Emergency Department on my way to work on a Saturday (passive call). But I sent my car to the carwash only after I have finished my ward rounds. It took me a week to recover from the trauma of killing a cat in this manner.

No. 9 also happened to me on new year's eve of 2008. It was early in the morning when I had just arrived at the hospital gate. I did not take emergency leave but sent my car to the workshop for repair & then came back to work as usual. That was definitely a reminder that my "milo tin" (kancil) is getting old & need to be replaced in the near future...
