I was watching CSI or one of the similar shows the other evening, and one of the investigators was examining someone's remains in an attempt to figure out their profession. She made a comment about "occupational markers" on the corpse's hands, little bony ridges on the first phalange of her right hand. It made me laugh (because apparently I have a morbid sense of humor!) to think of what an investigator might conclude about my gnarly hands. So, I want to know....what nursing battle scars do YOU have? Wonky fingers from charting? Random calluses? Funny "missing digit" story? (I hope not, and apologize for being offensive; I'm slap happy today!)
PS. Mine would be the large "charting tumor" as my DON calls it, and a complete lack of a R index/middle fingerprint d/t mouse useage (MDS/care plan related, lol)
