He is readmitted to hospital 1 week post surgery on his foot via surgical outpatients with maggots in his wound. When asked why he hadn't reported the smell of rotting flesh earlier - reply is 'I only noticed there was a problem when my wife commented on the increase in the flys in the house'

And her ex-husband embarked on a Mediao career.Really, he did despite only having 4 inches to work with.

He also got arrested for beating up on his girlfriend about 2 years after he got "bobbed". I guess he didn't learn the first time. He would probably find a way to be a jerk pt.

You know your patient's a jerk when:
You introduce yourself as a nurse and immediatly get met with a flurry of Gaylord Fokker referrences.
You're pt who five minutes ealier was in dire pain holds up a finger at you then points to their phone and then makes a go away motion
He tells you that he's prefer the hot nurse he saw on his way in start his IV
Give me some time, or hell just give me until I go back to work Monday night and I'm sure I can have a few more. Those are just the annoying ones off the top of my head.

he wants you to put lotion on his butt.
she wants to know all your credentials including your kindergarden teacher.
they want this that and the other, then when you get back in the room and kindly ask "is there anything else you need?" they say no and put their light on before you get to the end of the hall.

He blows a raspberry at you every time you walk in the room and call you a @*^$# because you wouldn't let him grab your backside and you're the first one to do this.

You all are reminding me why I left the ER.

Oooh I love it when the old ones get revived so I can actually read them!!!
You know your pt is a jerk if the prior shift's nurse sits you down before giving report, looks deep into your eyes, and says with all seriousness, "I am SO sorry!"
