    When I was working on a vascular surgery unit, a coworker told me about a patient I'd be taking from her at shift change, saying she was a HONDA......I'm like ???? And she explained Hypertensive Obese Neurotic Diabetic A$$hole; saying that I should know that, since that described most of our patients?!

    Also, when one of our patients died, we'd say they transferred to the 9th floor. Our hospital had only 8 floors.

    We have a particular surgeon that performs "Foreverectomies" on some of his patients. You know, removes any forever the poor soul had left.
    I know, it's sick, I'm hanging my head.....sort of.
