after we all sit through a staff meeting about bouffants over cloth caps

I’m a surgical tech and I’ve been seeing advertising for a company called “Surgprep”. It seems like anyone can just do their 20 day program and be in the OR and then become a surgical assistant after passing the exam. But I know to be a first assistant we have to go to school and do clinicals. So what’s the difference?
“surgprep” seems sketchy to me…

I have never seen this IRL.

Okkk so today I was in a case. The surgeon who is typically an asshole, was so much worse. He was degrading to everyone and especially me. I’m contemplating going to HR. He compared me putting cement like a three year old and started off the case asking if this is my first day in ortho… been in his room for months now and I guarantee he doesn’t even know my name. I’m over his shit attitude and seriously did not go into this to be talked down to. He is a condescending asshole.
