Sex in the workplace.....what do YOU think should be done? - Page 2

I think the snooping nurse, the supervisor and the maintainence man all need to be shot. What idiots.

The other two, meh, who cares. But for pete's sake, if you hear noise behind a locked door- unless someone is pleading for help, MYOB and come back on 10 minutes. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure that out.

Or come back in 2 minutes. Some men don't last a full ten.... just saying.

Lol...Its Grey's Anatomy come to life! Lol ;-D

I feel bad for that nurse. Word will get around and she will prob get treated differently and get snide marks sent her way.

Now this is affirming the stereotype that nurses and doctors are having affairs at work. greeeat :P

She's off duty, so not really her problem? Like another poster said, unless theres a "no sex policy", ( I bet one will be written, haha). The issue is the Doc. What if it was just the Doc and someone who didn't work there, they can't really do anything to the consenting individual because they don't work there except ask them to leave the premise. Its the doctors problem, he should not have been doing it obviously especially when theres patients to take care of. The hospitalist group hopefully did something, but I'm not sure how doctors are reprimanded for things like this.

nurse156 and I are of the same generation of nurses. Regardless of your moral belief, this is something that our generation learned how to handle, especially if you worked in an academic facility. That's just the way it was sometimes.

You also knew if the docs had any dirt back then because there weren't pagers and cell phones. The answering service called the doc's home phone to reach the senior resident and attending they were on call. So....... if they weren't going to be at the hospital or home, they told the night charge nurse on the floor exactly how to get in touch with them. Didn't want the hospital calling their home looking for them when they were supposed to be at the hospital.

Come to think of it , that may be one of the reasons that relationships seemed less advesarial between nurses and docs long ago. We knew all the dirt and they knew it.

That might just be an aha moment in the decline of nurse-physician professional relationship........ the advent of the cell phone. LOL

FIRED ...both of them, life isn't an episode of Gray's Anatomy...but hey what happens off campus is no one's beezwax...have some class,, be discreet,, even if the RN was off duty it was wrong to distract during on call for the doc..you can always pork off hours..

too freaking funny

Nothing should have happend to either one.

She was off duty, so unless they're going to try and charge her with tresspassing or some such nonsense, she's free to do as she pleases.

He was allowed to be asleep, so it's not like they can yell at him for not being somewhere within 15 seconds of being paged.

They had a locked door between them and any witnesses, so it's not like they were going at it in the hallway, cafeteria or waiting room.... they were concenting adults who showed discretion.

Oh please, this happens in ALL hospitals, don't be so naive. I'm not condoning it, I'm just merely stating fact. I know many doctors and nurses that are married, ummmm, how do you think they met! I for one would never do this, however I could careless what others do. On that note, I will say the doctor should be replying to texts, especially if he is on duty, I'm not exactly sure why she was suspended, unless like OP stated it might be a policy in the workplace.
