I'm a graduate nurse, and I found it hilarious and much of it is true! I look for every opportunity to laugh at myself. Nursing is far too stressful a job to take it so seriously you can't have fun with the wacky way we all behave sometimes. Clever, clever, clever.

Thumbs up

A Graduate Nurse thinks psych patients are interesting.
An experienced nurse thinks psych patients are crazy.



IMHO, it was meant to be more of a satire on nursing, rather than an insult. Overall, I thought it was a funny read.

Oh my, a sense of humor is what EVERY nurse needs if she is to survive the years of stress and strain her career will bring her. I say take it lightly and don't let it get to ya. No harm was meant.

OMG...if you can't take a moment to laugh once in awhile, you'll burnout really fast. What irritates me is people who have to be so d*&^ serious 24/7. Lighten up, you'll live longer.

I thought it was funny myself, and I have been an LPN for 20 years and an RN for one year now.

Through the years, we have all foubnd ourselves on both sides of that. Brings back quite a few memories...........

Hopefully, you will remain in nursing as long as I have and can look back for a good laugh.................we need those chuckles coming from time to time.

I saw it a few years ago, and I admit, I about wet myself laughing @ it. I'm sorry you were sent something you found offensive. Just delete it.
