THE ON-DUTY MEME



We're all used to playing our characters in special circumstances--sharing a bath, AUed into a robot, in the rain, lost in the ball pit (well that's one way to get your extra hour)...but how often do we get to actually play our characters doing their day jobs?

This meme is for just that.

INSTRUCTIONS
1. Write a starter about your character going about their day at work, wherever that may be.

If your character is a doctor, write them checking in on a patient, or having a meal in the hospital cafeteria. If they're a lawyer, write them at court. If they're a professional ghost-hunter? Yeah, that'd be a pretty neat starter too!

Be sure to include some sort of hook that allows other characters to join in the action, even if your character works alone. Maybe they brought their pile of research out to a cafe? Maybe they need help with something?

2. Respond to other characters' starters. Please tag out if you put a starter up. I know I can't enforce this, but no meme goes anywhere if people don't engage.

3. Thread. Have a good day at work, or perhaps an awful day at work.

Minoru - OC

[itmeanstruth]

Option 1: Mid-twenties Minoru

No one ever took on a hospital night shift expecting it to be quiet. Minoru was two pumpkin spice lattes into his shift as an orderly and the people just kept coming in. Beds had to be made. Rooms had to be cleaned. Patients had to be moved. Nurses needed help. Whatever the task, Minoru was on it!

[Are you a doctor or nurse needing a helping hand with a difficult patient? Are you said difficult patient? Oh, the chaos!]


Option 2: Mid-Thirties Minoru

It was hard to tell what Minoru liked more - helping people or moving. So, going back to school to be a physical therapist assistant was a natural fit. Now, it was his job to help people move. And the outpatient facility certainly didn’t mind that his repeated stints on American Ninja Warrior were earning them some good press these last few years. Those little paper fans on the wall weren’t just for show.
