  Surgical tech here! This is one of those ‘prank the new guy’ jokes you see in the OR. I’ve seen play out almost verbatim to the OP a couple different times.

  Original OP may well be quoting Scrubs, but I’d wager this prank predates Scrubs by a hefty margin too.

  “Go get me a jug of elbow grease” kind of shenanigans.

    I am quite certain the scrubs writers just talked to a lot of people in the profession and got their stories in the show. That’s part of why Scrubs was such a great show.

      The heart surgeon in 

      Scrubs who is based on a real-life friend and medical advisor to showrunner Bill Lawrence is Dr. Jon Turk, who inspired the character of Christopher Turk. 

      Here are the key details regarding this connection:

      • Real-Life Basis: The character of Dr. Christopher Turk (played by Donald Faison) is based on Dr. Jon Turk, a real-life physician who served as a medical consultant for the show.
      • The Name: The character’s name “Turk” is derived directly from Jon Turk.
      • Character Role: In the show, Turk is the best friend of protagonist J.D. and becomes the Chief of Surgery at Sacred Heart Hospital.
      • Context: Bill Lawrence often utilized real doctors to advise on the show, which helped maintain medical accuracy alongside the comedy. 

      Note: The main character J.D.'s name is also based on a real person, Dr. Jonathan Doris, who was a college friend of Bill Lawrence and served as a medical adviser to the show.

  That counts as a true story when you’ve got the brain rot.

    Or (hear me out) the writers of Scrubs worked a lot of true stories into their show?

      And unless the person was present in one of those true stories moments where this exact dialog occurred, my point remains.
