Subject: Nurses ???
Subject: Don't anger your NURSE
When you're hospitalized, it pays to be nice to your nurse, even when
you're feeling miserable. A bossy businessman learned the hard way after
ordering his nurses around as if they were his employees. But the head
nurse stood up to him.
One morning she entered his room and announced, "I have to take
your temperature."
After complaining for several minutes, he finally settled down, crossed
his arms and opened his mouth. "No, I'm sorry, the nurse stated, "but
for thisreading, I can't use an oral thermometer."
This started another round of complaining, but eventually he rolled over
and bared his bottom. After feeling the nurse insert the thermometer, he
heard her announce, "I have to get something. Now you stay just like that
until I get back!"
She left the door to his room open on her way out, and he cursed under
his breath as he heard people walking past his door laughing. After
almost an hour, the man's doctor came into the room. "What's going on here?"
asked the doctor.
Angrily, the man answered, "What's the matter, Doc? Haven't you ever
seen someone having their temperature taken?" "Yes," said the doctor.
"But never with a carnation."
