The first hospital I worked at would play this little whimsical jingle with chimes and a baby laughing any time a baby was delivered.
Cute during the day. But after an on-call emergency surgery well after midnight, you've just changed out of your scrubs and into your normal clothes, walking down the dimly lit, completely vacant halls between the OR and the parking lot... and then out of no where this omnidirectional, slightly out of sync from all the overhead speakers playing it, creepy-ass carnival jingle fires off with echoing baby laughter... does its thing for like 4 seconds, then it's back to absolute dead silence except for the hum of the lights.
Yeah fuck that. Everyone who pulled call absolutely hated that damn thing.
