Me: "Hi, it's the plastics reg, you bleeped me?"
Management: "It's hospital admin, we need you to discharge patients because we're short of beds"
Me: "Have you had a look at our inpatient list? We don't have any patients"
Management "Well, discharge who you can"

I got bleeped at 4am by a nurse who said the following:
"Excuse me doctor, but I have a patient who has got head lice, and we can't find the shampoo...."
I didn't hear the rest because I put the phone down.
