You've never seen a surgery up close.

Many of the tools are wrapped in plastic and you need a helper to find
them, open them, hand them to you, and clean them. You've got so many
layers on you can't feel anything. The patient is moaning with pain
and draped in so much stuff you can hardly tell they are human. And
for big jobs you use the same Black and Decker tools that home
builders use.
