Well, except for the fact that I have to be there at 5:30 am.
But I only do it one or two days a week and I'm usually home by noon. Although we don't get paid, we get invited to all employee events, like the Christmas party and the summer BBQ and we also eat free in the cafeteria. The hospital treats us very well and I can't walk down a hallway there without being thanked by someone.
My motivation to work in this area was that between all the medical issues my mother and wife have been through, I have spent a lot of time in that waiting room and others and I know what people are going through. For some it's a pretty routine thing because they've been there so many times, but for some it's the most stressful day in their life. And you're right, a smile goes a long way.
