It's so true! I never believed the full moon myth until I started working nights at my psych hospital, and boy is it true!

My mom always used to complain about this during her 30+ year teaching career - the same thing always happened with the kids! It's really odd and sounds like utter superstition, but it was amazing how often she would come home and talk about it being a crazy day and then we'd realize that night that the moon was full or had been full the night before....

Man yesterday absolutely nothing went right. I didn't get the pages telling me my pt's needed me. I scanned a med and pressed enter but it didn't show up on the mar as being given. Charge RN didn't tell me I was getting a transfer pt until the minute he was being rolled into his room...Oncoming night nurse gave me an awful time in report.
I guess I will chalk it up to the full moon :)
