There would be business done on the golf course
There would be thoughts on how innovative one could get
There would be zero tolerance for abusive patients
Maid service? What's that?!!
If Nursing were a male dominated field...
There would be respect for hierarchy
Being snarky? We would duke it out where it really counts...the bar!
There would be organization... there would be a constant think-outside-the-box
Just because it has always been done that way,
Does not mean it should stay that way!
Change is a constant in life...embrace it.
If nursing were a male-dominated field...
Martyrdom would die...a thousand deaths
They would be paid every cent of their worth
Press Garney be darned
Show me the darn money!
If nursing were a male-dominated field
There would be deals and a lot of networking
Hey, mi casa, su casa!
There would be more of open communication
Less of passive aggressive behavior
Trust me, you won't need a code to decipher what they meant
If nursing were a male-dominated field, there would be less of this
After a fight, misunderstanding...anything
(Female Version): "I am never going to speak to that female dog again"
And more of this:
(Male version): "Dude, still meeting up tonight right?"
If nursing were a male-dominated field
No work would get done...because the nurses would have been appropriated by the female patients who just want a listening ear and the males nurses who just.can't.say.no!
But nursing is not a male dominated field, so we live on...

By The Optimist
I definitely appreciate the humor. The last part I don't get but whatever. I do notice that there is more antagonism between women than between men in general. I see more support in general as a guy nurse than I see between female nurses. I don't think that's a stereotype and I do think it doesn't help women in general. If women got together like we nurses need to unionize, guys would be in trouble. but..... :) Ok, I'll stop my guy post. ESME, your dog is so awesome in those costumes.
the beauty of this post is that the women nurses are forced to kinda bite their tongue on this, lest they affirm the catty stereotypes presented in this little piece haha genius
try not to be so defensive ladies, its exactly this kind of mindless musing that keeps us entertained and so easy going and agreeable in what is obviously a stressful professional regardless of gender. its almost satirical
