Anyone done or hear of this?

[Gooberlx2]

So I donated blood today. Phlebotamists love me because veins on the inside of my elbows are BigMcLargeHuge. The lady says in passing, "Wow! Students should learn on you!" So I chuckled and payed it no heed. But now I'm thinking: can I sell my time for students to test on my arm? Can I approach a hospital and say: "Hey, look at these jumbo-veins! What are they worth to you?" I'd totally let them put a few holes in my arms for $75 or more (assuming it'd be an hour of my time, tops).

So yeah, has anyone ever heard or done this, or something similar (and by similar I don't mean sell plasma)?

You want to be a trainee pin cushion!? Not the best idea, there, man. You may have huge veins, but newbs can still miss...

I don't think anyone will pay you for that, but it's one of the most creative ideas I ever heard.

This reminds me of that South Park episode where Kenny keeps doing disgusting things for money, and then that guy on the talk show calls him a whore, and he gets thrown in jail, and then they get the thin Cartman-poser to dress up like Kenny and crawl inside Ms. Crabtree's uterus.


But anyway, yeah, whore your veins around to the highest bidder

Yah, there's the rub. hehe.

Honestly, newbies can miss but veins will heal. I'm sure if such a thing existed there'd be a safety maximum so that I wouldn't develop tracts or weak walls.

Ya, I've got O+. They hunt me down like the mob, regardless of where I live.

I have the most useless blood to donate, AB+, but it means I'm universal reciever. I still donate though. I figure, if I need it I want it to be there, so why not give some?

O blood is valuable?

I have O blood. Don't remember if positive or negative, but O it is!

O means you're a universal donor.

Most hospitals are teaching hospitals and thats where nurses, doctors and aids learn to st@b people. They just pratice on regular patients. Kind of funny when you think about it, you are paying to have someone practice on you.

Heh, that came to mind now that you mention it...

Somehow I doubt people need THAT much practice...
