Is This Bullying?

Published

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

I know I feel bullied. My company buys us 2 sets of new scrubs every 6 months. I feel like I am being STRONG-ARMED into wearing new, fresh scrubs every 6months to work-----it's not fair and I am writing the company CEO a personal letter to complain. What do YOU think? :-)

Will I have to cover my green jello tattoo when I transfer to a red jello unit? I'm really scared that their going to make fun of me.

Do you see what ensued after Jell-O was mentioned?

You will be a horrible nurse! Anyone who thinks a glitter stethoscope is professional should not be allowed to be a nurse!

I know *I* wouldn't want them to take care of me or anyone in my family. Where's the compassion??

If they do, make sure to file a complaint with HR. After all, now that YOU are there, all the rules must change. No longer should you expect to have to put up with such violence and bullying. Stand up for your Preferred Jell-O!!

I think you're a totally awesome nurse, even though I've never met you. Don't put up with garbage like having to break in new scrubs all the time. No WONDER so many have complained about NETY! It's like totally SO true ;)

What do we do if they're not dead yet? Do we give the almost-dead jello, too? We're going to run out of jello at this rate.

We also have to be careful about appearances, that we don't discriminate against the Nearly Dead or Mostly Dead (cue Mel Brooks, people!!!)

Hell no, you shouldn't even try. The Crusty Old Bats would eat you in no time. They like to eat their young, dontcha know. Especially the pretty ones, the ones that really are too pretty to be nurses and who make everyone around them jealous.

Don't even think about trying to become a nurse until you can find the perfect scrubs for your body type that also coordinate with your unicorn glitter stheoscope.

Good to know! You have saved me much grief and bullying! But how dare you insinuate I am pretty OR young! I am neither! So there!

Well I don't care what you all say. I will use my special glitter unicorn stethoscope! You can't be the boss of me.

and if you don't give me my red jello in my preferred brand I will report you to the DON.

as for all the crusty old bats why don't you just retire if you are so unhappy!

Wait wait .....don't you know the younger prettier nurses are trained to use only sugar free jello? How dare you try and make them use a fattening jello....obviously because your an older nurse you do not keep up with current nursing evidence...hmmph!
