Rest in peace. This makes me so sad.

I am in Illinois and was certified through the hospital I where I worked.

I work with a nurse who tells pts way too much. Too much about office politics as well as too much about herself. I finally told her the other day that when pts ask how she is they are being nice and don't want a rundown of her life troubles. Of course she just looked at me like I had two heads...

"Butt hurt"! My new favorite thing to say.

I would be embarassed to report something so petty.

Southern Illinois, almost 18 yrs experience, $16/hr in a Private Practice. But the Doc also pays for my health insurance and we get a hefty Christmas bonus.

My biggest annoyance are the patients who want to be sick. They want to be refered to endless specialists and want every possible test done. I really want to tell them that they are taking up time I need for people who ARE sick!

1. It is difficult to focus on the positive aspects of my job. 2. Sometimes, if you are lucky, Holier-than-Thou coworkers get knocked off the High Horse by their own actions. 3. It still brightens my day when a patient thanks me and means it.

I always "frisk" myself when I need a pen. Then remember I'm not wearing scrubs with 10 pockets. LOL My 5 yo granddaughter washes her hands like a nurse and I love it. After using public BRs she also asks for Purell because..."maybe someone didn't wash her hands and got poop on the door". I love that kid!

When I worked LTC the "Scrub Van" came a couple times a year. We all loved it. I hate ordering without being able to try on but live almost an hour from the nearest scrub store.

I learned that being an honest, hard working employee only gets you **** on and that I need a new job.

The new office "manager" at our Practice has brought a chicken, yes a chicken, to work on two different occasions. She asked if I could get her a syringe to feed the first one. I firmly explained the difference between a nurse and a vet tech.
