Karrie: (answering the ringing phone) Hello, this is March of the People Hospital, how may I help you? (writes something down) Ok, let me make sure I have this right. Your sick mom, Judith, is it? Needs surgery for her eye and your willing to pay two hundred thousand dollars? (pause) Well ok (to herself) Bigger paycheck for me. (laughs) Ok ma'am, I have that down. (hangs up phone. Continues writing until phone rings again) Hello, March of the People Hospital, how may I be of your service? Kimmy, is that you? How did you get my work number? Girl, you need to hush. No, I'm not busy, I can talk. Wait, hold on, I have an incoming call. (switches to˜call)˜Hello, how may I help you here at March of the People Hospital? Uh huh? You need an ambulance right away? And your address is? Thank you. I'll page the ambulance folks right now. (back to Kimmy) Kimmy, are you still there? No, I was talking to...hold on, another call...(switch) March of the People Hospital. Oh my gosh! Mom! What happened? Dad fell down the stairs and twisted his neck? No way! Uh, mom, I'm sorry to say this...but...your going to have to hold. (back to Kimmy) Did you see that new nail polish that came out? Hold on...(switch) Hello, this is March of the People Hospital, my name is Karrie, how may I help you? Ma'am, calm down. I understand that your daughter just got hit by a train, but there is no need to yell. I mean, even though she's probably dead, she'll still be alive in your heart right? Ma'am, I find it very rude that your yelling at me, just for that, I'm putting you on hold and you have to pay me four hundred dollars (sweetly) goodbye. (back to Kimmy) Anyways...Kimmy, this lady called me and yelled at me just because her daughter got hit by a train, like it was my fault. That's the consequence you get when you don't watch your children...omg, I'm sorry Kimmy, please hold. (switches to other caller) MOTP Hospital, what happens to be your problem? Oh! Boss, hey! What? Come again? You know, for a second there, I thought you were telling me I was fired. (pause) Huh? What now? Your actually firing me?! What is this?! What for? For emotional abuse? Who did I emotionally abuse? Yeah, I remember her...remember him...mom...them...but no harm was done, I mean, I'm fine! No, you don't fire me because I QUIT!(back to˜Kimmy; sobbing) Hey Kimmy, I'll have to talk to you later. (hangs up, calls mom) Mom. No, I didn't deal with the dad situation yet. I have something to tell you, I didn't do anything...but they fired me! ME! Hold on...(to other caller) Hello? I DON'T CARE! I don't work here anymore! Stop calling me, you imbosol! (hangs up; back to mom, sobbing) They fired me! I'm just in shock! Huh? What? What did you say? One more time...(sighs) Yeah mom, I'll hold...

I would like to use this speech for my school speech contest. I plan to dress up as a female nurse because I am a boy. I think is funny and I think that dressing up as a nurse will make it even more funny.

I just have to say that your the only person on here that makes hilarious monologues! I swear on everything that you think just like me. I was just going over this monologue to prepare for an audition tomorrow and I used improv to help me memorize the lines. Not knowing that in the next line were the same words I used in my improvisation for the lines to come! lol how ironic; you are the perfect writer for my monologues, no joke! lol
