Since I've started this new job I've slowly learned that the characters here aren't quite as cartoon-like in their oddities as the ones I used to work with. They're your everyday variety of crazy, eccentric, grumpy, friendly, entertaining, baffling people. I don't have any concerns that one of them is secretly a serial killer nor do I think any of them are living brain donors. Even my direct co-workers, who I have little to no interaction with on the most part, are as close to normal as anyone I've worked with in a long time.
The job hasn't provided nearly the sort of material I had hoped. Despite some blooming friendships and even some rumored at-work romance on the horizon, these people just aren't interesting in the same sense as my former co-workers were. This job's humor comes more in the way of things overheard, either by guests or medical staff, but they're few and far between, and even pose some ethical and legal dilemmas in disclosing them.
Considering all of this, I believe the best move, one that I'm sure most have already assumed, is to end this instead of trying to force stories and characters that don't exist. This was never meant to be a work of fiction, and I have no intention of turning it into one. So, thank you for taking the time to read these little stories, and I hope you find some other outlet for your obviously immense boredom. I personally have started watching TV shows on DVD. I highly recommend Rome and Carnivale as good starters.
