Describe the Ugliest Scrubs You Have Seen!

Nurses Humor

Geez, I volunteer @ a hospital where I have seem more than my share of ugly scrubs! Interested to know what's the ugliest you have seen out there. I have 2 that come to mind:

(1) NASCAR race cars .. everywhere, ugh!

(2) A black and white top from afar upon closer inspection reveals it's a skull and crossbones design :eek: .. OK it was around Halloween but seriously? As a patient I would get creeped ...

Personally, I wish the RNs would wear scrubs that identify them apart from LPNs, CNAs or techs. They ALL look the same! Gotta freaking look for a badge that is not always prominently displayed .. but I digress ...

I was given a scrub set by my 7 yr old nephew, he insisted his Mom get it for me as a graduation gift. It is pink, (I should say not just pink.... PINK) with these strange little black & white cartoon kittys all over it. Oh and the same PINK colored scrub pants! He was so proud of it, I of course made a big fuss over how wonderful it was. (Please don't tell him.... I've never worn them, they are still hanging in my closet).

You should actually change into them in an empty hospital room (or locker room), have a picture taken there wearing them, change back into your regular scrubs and give your nephew the picture. If I were him, I know I would be happy to feel like you're "using" them @ work!

I can't stand insulated undershirts with scrub tops.

Chili pepper printed bikini underwear under white scrub pants..on a guy. Seriously?

I worked with a male nurse that wore a black scrub top with HOT PINK scrub pants.

I'm an older nurse and I always wear a long sleeve shirt under my scrub top and also pull it down past my scrub top. Sometimes I wear 2 shirts and both are pulled down below my scrub top. It is cold on my floor so I have to wear layers but I like the look. I never wear prints, solid colors only and we are allowed to wear whatever we want. The ugliest I saw was a scrub top with lips all over it.

My manager has a set of bright yellow and orange print top AND print pants. This outfit looks like something a clown would wear at the circus.

My coworker buddy (murse) came in one morning wearing an almost neon green colored scrubs and burnt orange colored crocs.

Can't figure out how to post the picture but I saw this one flipping through a Lydia's catalog. Flash back to the eighties! Bring back the Aqau Net hairspray to match this monstrosity!
