I had a paramedic draw blood for me one day. He came up to me after and said, “the gold tube clotted, so I threw it out.”
I looked at him a little sideways and said “the clot tube clotted?”
He didn’t catch it and actually repeated back, “Yeah. The clot tube clotted so I threw it out!”
Then he looked at me weird. 🤦♂️
