If you come in to be treated for a STD, don't hit on the nurse

How about "I can't pee in a cup" Guess what? I can help, let me go grab a catheter Mr.Man...I'll be right back. Please note gleam in eye... :devil: Why don't you give it just 1 more try while I'm gone?? Miracles of miracles there is a speciman in that cup on my return!! LOL :saint:

Patient: "You CANNOT keep me here against my will"

RN: "Really!??!"

Patient is in 4-point restraints. Hmmmmm...

:angryfire

Patient: "If you dont get that IV on the first try, I'm leaving!"

RN: "Oh, THAT'LL teach me!"

:rotfl:

"No MF white bi$%h is gonna stick me!" Wanna bet???

"No a$$***e is going to put a needle that size (18 ga) into me!"

"Okey Dokey!" while reaching for the 16 gauge.

I can just see it. He puts his pants back on after getting cultured and he looks over at you all suave and debonair and says, "so hey baby, did you like what you saw?" YUCK!!!

not real smart to tell a nurse w/ an iv in her/his hand..."you only get one try"

wanna bet??

I've been told that, too!

Thank goodness I did get it on the first try!

How about the ones that say "I'm not going to be a pt here anymore!"

Well, boo-hoo-hoo, baby.
