party like a nurse?!?!

Nurses Humor

Published

as we are all aware, nurses week is coming up. i've been looking at some nurse magazines and they have been advertising gifts and favors that companies can buy to show their appreciation for us hard working nurses. but one item has me curious... it's a shirt that says in wild colors "party like a nurse." what does this mean?! and how does one party like a nurse?! its even more confusing b/c the lady modeling the shirt is overtanned and bleach blonde hair...

so, how do u all "party like a nurse"?

Specializes in LTC.

For my graduation party I made jello shots in 100ml syringes.

Otherwise most of the parties of nurses I've been to have included bars or boardgames and cocktails.

lol - Now this I would love to see! I'm terrible for saying "I'm going to use the rest room" and then answering a few call bells before mentioning to my co-workers "I feel like I'm forgetting to do something....mmmmm....":lol2:

That is so me...I'll wonder why my bladder suddenly decided to spams up and realize that I've had a pot of coffee and an energy drink and it's 0500 and I haven't gone to the bathroom yet...at which point I rival Tom Hanks in "A League of Their Own". (As a side note, does it make me odd or just a sign that I'm a nurse that every time that happens I think I should have grabbed a hat to see if my bladder does indeed expand to the sie of a VW Bug before I have to go? It's like X-treme Games style bladder training.)

perhaps it means to party for 12 and a half hours straight without eating or visiting the restroom!

Sounds like work...

Party like a nurse... Hmm...

Eating chocolate cake out of a bedpan (Poop!)

Drinking beer or apple juice out of urine specimen cups.

Drinking sangria out of test tubes (Blood!).

Jello shots out of med cups.

Party games would include seeing who could go the longest without peeing, or who could chug a gallon of Golytely the fastest (Nobody wins with this one. It can't end well for anyone involved. Must be extemely crazy to attempt.) :lol2:

Anytime I hear some jerk use the "naughty nurse" reference I say "sure come hang out at work with us" and "be a guniea pig for:

Letting students/new nurses practice skills depending on your level of being carefree

1. IV skills-no problem

2. NG-ugh

3. ABG-ouch

4. foley/flexiseal

But...I promise you will get attention from these so-called "naughty nurses" or party nurses while they poke and prod you to learn new skills!"
