As am I. :lol2:

And just so everybody knows, the originator of that statement was fired (not for saying that, but for chronically stealing from people, but that's another story :smokin:).

It is appropriate and an abuse of position to "teach" your residents to say things like that. I think it's disgusting, and I am one of the more inappropriate people where I work. Cultural difference, maybe? I don't think anyone at our place of work would find it funny.

Yes, you have a point -- of course it's very inappropriate and what that aide did was give an example NOT to follow. Nevertheless I still think it's freakin' hilarious!! :clown: As you know, our jobs can be very sobering, very humorless and even painful. It's hard not to laugh your butt off at some of the wacky things that happen, however offensive. :eek:

While I'd never teach residents anything like that, I did recently teach one of our residents to call my favorite nurse a gnome (she's really short, haha). It was hilarious because he's mentally handicapped and has very limited speech, maybe 3 or 4 words. So when she walked in and I said "tell her!" and he said "gnoooome!" she nearly peed herself.

And he laughed so hard he cried, lol. He loves giving people a hard time like you wouldn't believe. He's also one that will fart at you when you change him and crack up.

Not all the residents are saints! Some of them have the same warped sense of humor as the rest of us.

And by the millionth time the resident has said it this week, everyone will be beating their heads against the wall and looking for the person responsible lol.

We knew it wasn't coming from the TV (I've seen some VERRRRRYYYYYYYYYYY questionable late-night shows on in resident rooms that were "previews" of other "special" channels that cost money, if you know what I mean) when 3 different residents started saying it.

The CNA gave herself away when she and a resident did it together in the middle of the dining room, much to the shock of everyone around them.

So is walking around all morning witching at everyone about having no money for soda, then suddenly ending up with a bottle of Coca-Cola that conveniently has the charge nurse's name (written on it in Sharpie) covered up with big huge strips of paper tape. When questioned, "but... but... it came out of the vending machine this way."

She was a fun one.

We totally hijacked this thread.

Back to the subject-my first year as an aide-adorable pt. that needed whenever she would need changed, she'd roll her chair into the hall and scream my name followed by "I have an assload for ya!" I swear, the spirit of that woman is the only thing that kept me going some days.......................
