The unit ran out of red Jello. The Nurse Manager knows it's my favorite flavor. :sneaky:

LOL! Your post is exactly the perk-up I needed!

Haven't posted in awhile, morale "off", and this made me smile.

Thanks :)

Surely you are not planning to eat said red Jello at the nurses' station?!?!?!?

The jello will be right next to her uncovered cup of soda. Then she will try to trick another nurse into having one as well so that she's in on the secret and can't tattle.

Of course... the tell-tell red tongue from eating the red Jello will be a dead give-away.

This calls for a trip to "borrow" some from your neighboring unit. :whistling:

Yes, but I will be very ​careful as to which chair I choose to sit upon.

Were you the one who left the lube/doppler gel on the seat? Tsk, tsk, you so just incriminated yourself and I'm going to the nurse manager!

Unquestionably, this is bullying. I think you should report this to the BON. This could also be an attempt to use an ageist tactic to get you to quit your job; at 57y, you are probably too old to chew solid food, so your favorite flavor of jello may be the only nourishment you can take in. Someone is hoping you will keel over for lack of nutrition so s/he can slip in to your position without being noticed.

Watch. your. back. Jack.
