I always arrived early for work. I would eat in the cafe with housekeeping b/c I liked them but staff looked down on them. Matter of fact, when staff found out I did that the come back was........"You eat with them!"
Anyway, so after my meal I went up the the floor to check the census....whoa, what a work load we had to look forward to. Well, I went downstairs to the pay phone, calling to my floor..........I called in sick. (they knew I was joking) but we sure did have a great laugh over that.
As I walked past the pay phone outside our ICU/CCU, it rang, so I answered it. The voice on the end asked "Is this the number for 'Pic N Save'?" (a discount store in our town). I thought for a second and said, "No", but it made me chuckle to tell the caller that he'd called the local hospital's ICU and that "No, we don't 'pick ' who we 'save'."
:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: Dana, you're quick. Thanks for a good laugh! I bet the person on the other end had a good laugh too!!!
