extreme nurses

[oramar]

I only saw it once, an advertisments that featured nurses that actually made me chuckle. The thing is that I do not remember what product they were selling. The advertisment showed two plump middle aged women in scrubs wearing stethescopes standing in a nurses station jamming like rock stars. It then said, Extreme Nurses, something, something. I was amused without being put off or offended. Anyone else see it, what did you think.

Ok, that was hilarious :rotfl: :rotfl:

I also had to check out what the center for nursing advocacy had to say about it because I couldn't figure out what there was to be offended about in the commercial. They do review the commercial here

but they couldn't find anything to be offended about either.

But the Nursing Advocacy folks didn't appreciate it much, I guess.

I've come to the conclusion that's their take on everything.

I think it's a pretty fair depiction of nurses....after all, when we are swamped most of us just get a handful of nuts to eat for a 12 hr. shift...a little protein pick-me up!!!!

Great ad, sometimes you just have to escape from a crazy day and I'm off to head bang and eat some nuts right now :rotfl:

[JBudd, MSN]

That ad is great! Just think what they'd be like with a couple of cups of coffee to go with those nuts :rotfl:

What a hoot!!!!

It is so funny. I do not see anything wrong or offensive about it

I love that ad- could it have been at the end of a 12 hour night shift? 5th day in a row
