I’m not saying they don’t deserve it, obviously I know they have our lives between their hands. To my knowledge, they base their calculations around our weights and heights. What else makes it so difficult?

I had a surgery on my foot a couple years ago. I asked the surgeon if they could just do local anesthesia, not general, so I wouldn’t be out of it for so long. He was fine with it — they just lidocained the crap out of my foot and did the surgery with me fully awake.
The anesthesiologist came with the OR. Even though the surgeon did all the lidocaine, they had the anesthesiologist stick around in case I started freaking out mid-surgery and they had to knock me out. As it was, it was totally fine, and I just spent a pleasant hour chatting with the anesthesiologist about his upcoming vacation to the Rockies while four people took my foot apart and put it back together.
