GUM! Can you chew it on shift?

Published

Heard a hospital banned gum... didn't say why. I think I'd have to quit a job that banned gum.

Well? Can you chew gum? Why not? Do you do it anyways? Does anyone care?

I'm sure there are. They are everywhere, but they are probably the same ones that have horrible table etiquette too. Not everyone chomps gum just like not everyone chews with their mouth open. Is it a bit unprofessional...yea. Is it disgraceful enough to be called all that í ½í±†í ¼í¿½... Absolutely NOT.

I am a gum chewer in life but agree it's rude at work. And I agree that many people are cud chewers and I cannot stand it. Maybe try mints instead?

I should not throw my hat into this ring but it seems to me the above poster is not a nurse from her response. When someone avoids the question that is the answer in itself.

You ponder on that and I'll go do something more useful with my time, degree, and skills.

Far, you've been asked to return to the kids table and let the adults talk about their important adult matters. You know, gum chewing and such.

Who knows? Carry on, I guess. I'm still waiting on crackling to bring popcorn.

Don't chew with your mouth open.

*yawns and covers my mouth*

Imma go eat. At the kids' table.

When an actual nursing shortage occurs, some prospects will think "they ban gum at the hospital, but when I work for the p4p agency, they give me free gum" and decide that nursing can wait.
