i work in a company where most of the employees are male. 90% of the population are professionals. most of them tried to flirt to female nurses on duty. and those men are committed and worse they are married. when i'm the one whose on duty, those oppurtunistics are rare in the clinic. i just don't entertain their flirtitous domain..it is different when my nurse reliever has her duty.. a lot of them are in the clinic roaring like flirty lion,,(well it's just an exaggerated definition) i don't mind it at first as long as my fellow do her job..it is her own prerogative if she entertain those oppurtunistic..but my temper ended (as usual), one of the employee asked me when my nurse reliever will have her duty, i answered him casually that i dont know..as we parted, he told his friend and i heared it!(they are just 10 feet away from me)"that nurse is the ugly one!"and both of them laugh..i don't know how to react that moment..i turn and look at him straight saying nothing..from then i never saw him in the clinic..he must pray harder that he will not get an accident while im on duty..maybe this "ugly nurse" will be the one to take care of him..

opportunistic? such a harsh word. what are these men, infection?
i see female nurses flirt as well but would never call them opportunistic. sometimes it's just for fun.
i sense some jealousy. maybe you would like one of these "opportunistics" to flirt with you as well?
i kid....i kid....
just go with the flow as long as these "opportunistics" are doing their job. who cares?
angel, male rn (not opportunistic though)

okay, hannor, now you know that your as ugly as the rest of us. but, by all means, do not become a spiteful, revenge-seeking nurse who literally emasculates males. those positions are alredy filled.
instead, learn a few comebacks that will have these guys cowarding in their tracks, balled up in a fetal position, in need of hygienic measures for bowel incotinency.
here's some examples:
"i am rubber and you are glue. whatever you say bounces off of me and sticks to you."
"i know you are. but what am i?"
"your mama."
"aaa- na-uh!"
"if my dog had a face like yours, i'd shave his butt and teach him to walk backwards."
"that's not what your teen-age son said."
perhaps our peers can come up with some more. until then, keep a stiff upper lip.
