Michael S.

The real names of the staff represented by these stories have been changed to ensure they cannot be identified.

I met Michael S. when I was in the hospital back in 2015. He was not what you’d expect a nurse to look like. He did not wear scrubs, rather he wore a button down shirt with khaki slacks. They appeared to be designed specifically for men who were significantly wide around the waist. He was, in my opinion, lucky to find something that fit him so well and wasn’t part of a clown costume designed to be ridiculously proportioned. He was quite round, but not so terribly that he was unable to perform the minimum duties of his task. He was also not very tall, but not too short. I could tell that he was someone who had likely been mocked for his appearance and unsuccessful at obtaining a romantic partner.

His demeanour was something that I found typical of someone who was bitter and contemptuous towards others. I doubted that he had ever been the object of anyone’s affection - but had been subject to rejection at every attempt to pursue a companion.

I could not determine his age. He could be in his thirties, or forties, he did not appear to be concerned with what people thought of him. I believe he had simply become accustomed to it, which was characteristic of someone who did not see the need to change or grow, they are uninspired and unable to accept anything but their perception of things.

Michal was a pickle when it came to being my nurse. He yelled at me when I wanted water and he was irate during the interview. His body language indicated he had better things to do, even though he had nothing to do otherwise.

As horrible as the staff are, he’s one of the ones I’d hide if anyone from the media were to film them. He was the sort of person who resembled the perpetrator of some sort of sex crime on SVU Special Victims Unit. He looks like the type of character from one of those crime shows that thinks laws against engaging in sexual acts with minors are a repressive systemic injustice.

I understand now, that Michael would find comfortable employment at RJH. I believe his disdain for humanity was well intact prior to working in PES, and I think he found the best place to work, as it would be hard for me to imagine him anywhere else. His reluctance to perform and apathy for the patients in his care was not something to be ashamed of, but something to strive for at RJH.

Outside of work it is difficult for me to imagine that he engaged in wholesome activities. The kind of behaviour he provided patients of the unit was, outside of its wall, reprehensible and embarrassing. No one who behaves like him would be able to switch their behaviour off outside of their job.

I do believe he found a network of men who have similar traits. I think 4chan is the sort of toxic place he’d spend his leisure time on. Engaging in frivolous arguments about figurines they collected, recommending different kinds of obscure, erotic animations where humans and ocean life engaged in acts of fornication. They blamed their failure with the opposite sex on the behaviours and disposition of the opposite sex in North America. They idealized asian women, way out of their league, naively believing that they are submissive and devoted to men like them. Michael is the kind of guy who’d be easily conned by a catfish who posed as a young, Japanese woman wanting to find love with an American man.

Michael is the type of person who is completely lost in a fantasy world he created that he would never be able to realistically experience. He’s a lost cause. I imagine he’ll end up in some sort of prison or something in a country in southeast Asia. He’d be conned into going there by a catfish of sorts, hoping to obtain the women he thinks he deserves and ends up being a mule for a drug smuggling scheme.

Michael thinks the world owes him something. He believes he deserves to be clothed in a grecian robe, laying in a garden of bountiful fruits and abundant floral arrangements. He pictures himself there, surrounded by scantily clad, giggling asian women who feed him grapes and succumb to his sinful desires.

Michael despises me and I’m not surprised. I don’t think I will ever go back to PES again - but it would amuse me to see this guy in public. Without the security of protective services, and thick plexiglass, the support of their equally terrible colleagues, I doubt Michael would have the same brazen approach to people. I have a hard time feeling any sympathy for him. He’s the type of person that you sense immediately that is everything my description outlines.
