You might be a nurse if.......


You might be a nurse if: While using a public restroom, you wash your hands with soap for a full minute and turn off the faucets with your elbows.
Your favorite dream is the one where you leave a mess at a patient's bedside and tell a doctor to clean it up.
Men assume you must be great in bed because of the nine billion X-rated movies about nurses.
Everyone, including complete strangers, tell(s) you about each and every ache and pain they have.
You want to put your foot through the TV screen every time you see a nurse on a soap opera doing nothing but talking on the phone and flirting with doctors.
You can almost SEE the germs on doorknobs, telephones and toilet seats.
You can watch the goriest movie and eat anything afterwards, even spaghetti with lots of tomato sauce.
You use a plastic 30cc medicine cup for a shotglass.

What's with this stereotype that nurses are nymphomaniac lovers? We're taught not to do anything until the swelling goes down, or take actions like give hydrocortisone shots to make it go down.

huh? anyway stereotype nurses as nymphomaniacs, no.........men may perceive us as such due to the gazillion adult movies made about naughty nurses. Ever checked a Halloween store for a nurses costume. Disgusting as best !

You have your nurses cap from graduation on your car's dashboard---2 years later!!
You have your stethescope hanging over your rearview mirror.
You look at strangers veins in the checkout lane thinking "Wow, that would be an easy stick!!"

you can handle the smell of a pt. on a bowel prep all night long, but you want to hurl when a doc comes in plastered in cologne.
