To the smokers I work with, please do yourselves and patients a favor by brushing your teeth after smoking. the smell of smoke makes me gag, and I feel sorry for your already nauseated patients.
To the supervisor that baths in his cologne... don't. it smells horrible.
To the nurse with the huge blond hair. it looks like a bomb was set off in your hair. did you use a whole bottle of stiff on it? and you may want to wear better fitting scrubs, I'm curvy as well, but I don't like to show my curves at work.
Yes, I do like to wear make up and manicured nails( no chipping, or fakes nails) to work everyday. not only does it make me feel good but patients notice as well. looks are first impressions, and I like to make a good one.
Which is why I don't wear make-up to work. If I don't have time to take a pee, I certainly don't have time to touch up my make-up. I look worse at the end of a 12 hour shift when I try to wear make-up than I do with none.
Then you would say "exactly the same," not "exact same." Look it up if you want. It's grammatically incorrect.
I know my grammar is far from perfect. I'm just saying that expression grates on my nerves.
You are correct in identifying my inappropriate use of exact. My statement was to address your comment that disapproved of the use of exact and same together since the terms seemed redundant.
