okay, i don't think it's right, but if i had to guess i would say that they put it on the badge because this person is so close to finishing there's no sense in making another one a few months from...

i had an elderly nurse instructor say one time that our hair is a breeding ground for bacteria and we should wash our hair every day after working. i take a shower as soon as i get home and i wash my...
