Today, I was operating on a young girl, when she began to awaken during the surgery. We quickly put her back under, of course, but now I'm terrified that she'll remember my profuse cursing and get me in the shit with my curmudgeonly killjoy of a boss. FML

Surgery must be pretty stressful. There's a lot of pressure involved. If anyone should be allowed to swear at work, it should be a surgeon.

OH MY GOD. Why is everyone saying this is OP's fault? It isn't. It's no one's fault if a patient wakes up during surgery unless there was a massive oversight, which is less common than the anesthesia not working like it's supposed to. Please people, get educated before you comment on stuff like this.

Cursing can be a way to alleviate stress. If he's a good surgeon, I don't see why he should be reprimanded. I'd care more about the quality of his handiwork than what comes out of his mouth. I feel terribly sorry for the girl. Perhaps it was the anesthesiologist's fault... or perhaps it was that the girl was tolerant against anesthesia. The world may never know. :P

Hopefully she doesn't remember waking up in the middle of a surgery. That would be incredibly traumatizing.
