Christmas Gift for your unit from docs

I hardly ever post, but I had the image of a nurse standing over a tray of 4 truffles, razor blade in hand, dividing the goods for everyone. Too funny.

:lol_hitti :icon_question:

doc makes $400,000 gives 28 teabags to 50 nurses =1.78 teabags/nurse

instead of a razor blade maybe everyone just gets one lick

Big decorative can o'stale popcorn.

Those HUGE tins of funky (and not in a good way) cookies that you get for $2.69.

Then they come in like a horde of locusts and STEAL the fabulous goodies that we make- well, try to anyway- since we changed the combination on the break room lock! :icon_twisted:

Ink pens they obtained from drug reps! Whoopee!

Those boxes of jelly bellies, ugh

I worked with a great intensivist in OKC. He & his wife would make tons of homemade cookies and deliver the tins to the hospital. Each shift on every one of his units would get a tin of cookies. They were awesome!

This is the same guy that loved dressing up (he & his staff) for rounds on Halloween...

I have to agree with stevielynn. We have gotten cookie baskets, chocolate, meat trays with all the sandwich fixings, more chocolate, flavored coffees, more chocolate, and one of our ED docs brought each ED nurse,supervisor, and clerk a bottle or Amaretto. Tomorrow, our doc will bring enough breakfast for everybody working in the hospital. I love rural nursing. We are all very grateful for our docs.

I have two goodies to share with you. When I worked in a school for physically handicapped and/or deaf children, the doctor gave us a box of chocolates. Looked great until I bit into one. The alcohol inside had dried up, must have been a regift from the year before.

The second was the ENT's gift to me. I ran his ENT clinic and the nurses at the school said that he'd never given a gift to any other nurse who worked with him. It was a red ceramic shoe.

However, in his case, I was touched in a funny way. I kept it for quite a while. Not quite sure what to do with it, but I kept it.
