Rule is: One sentence. Random thought. Silly is great. Funny would rock. If you're going to be judgmental, GO TO ANOTHER THREAD! FUN ONLY HERE!
Fomite is my new favorite word because it sounds like a sandwich spread.

The tubing for GT feeds has a huge label on it that says NOT FOR IV. I wonder if someone out there has made that mistake and that's why that label is there.*shuddering*

It used to say "not for parenteral use" and my friend got an earful from a patient who yelled that he is a parent so why was he getting that?? Or, maybe that is apocryphal.

Yes Mr. Cranky Cardiologist, I did have to call you at 10pm when your patient went from NSR in the 80's to rapid Afib in the 180's. Again, I apologize for waking up your daughter when the phone rang.

No, seriously, I don't care that you have toured all the hospitals in Europe and we are lacking, you are welcome to go back there...PLEASE stop following me into other patients' areas.
No...I really must insist that you stop inserting foreign objects into different body orifices as it is not conducive to comfort or safety (as I was removing another object from said gentleman's body orifice).
