heck, i'm only a nursing student and a coworker's boyfriend will take pics and text them to her and say, "show this to brillohead and see what she thinks"!
good one... just wait after you earn a couple of years under your belt, everyone will be asking you questions on your days off, as a matter of fact i had several family and friends of mine that do the same, they call me or send me a pic, to get my opinion, however, mind you they are in europe!

You record the ventilator alarm and set it as your text alert, just to watch your friends that are nurses reactions when not at work.

Definitely when you have extensive conversations about BMs or other foul things over dinner and you don't even notice you are doing it. Especially if you have other nurses in your family....the non-medical family members are usually horrified.

When you visit a friend in the hospital and have to resist the urge to empty their catheter.
When your friend calls you for medical advice and you use terms such as "q" and "PRN" and they tell you to talk English.

Your nightmares consist of checking 4 patients blood sugars and all the readings are 492! Then you check your own BS and it's also 492 even though you are not diabetic!

you know you're a nursing *student* when you scratch your head after reading this thread and wondering "what am I getting myself into?"
can't wait to be able to join in on the jokes.
