The Mockery of Nursing

I have a BA in Golf Management, can I get an accelerated MSN and become a Chief Nursing Officer?

Darwin was wrong about survival of the fitest.

Student nurses have google on their phones and the patients have 911 preprogrammed on theirs.

GrnTea (and Esme),

'Twas a joke you idiots! an intentional misunderstanding, of course.

Esme, hope you didn't get Noro. I heard it was making rounds.

Absolutely. What's more, you can use that 9 iron on staff that don't listen to you.

do you mean this thread is "sick" as in "awesome," or "sick" as in "twisted?" i get confused these days trying to keep up with slang.

Ok, I will freely admit it. I was mean the other day. My excuse- tired of having to explain my actions. Unloading ambulances in acute- Newly graduated RN "why have you given me two new patients when such and such still has a spare bay, I am so busy already and NO-ONE is helping me?" (such and such is organising to take a very sick patient to resus and has the only other spare bay) So I take the phones, arrest pager and keys out of my pocket and hand them to her- "Fine you do it, Im going for a break, I want to see those 12 ambulances unloaded by the time I get back."

Maybe I should just quit since Im so old and mean now. I guess I am jealous because she does in fact know everything, is very pretty and works so damn hard. Plus you know, she loves talking to the ambulance crews, good for morale. This was only the twentieth time she questioned my leadership so, maybe I need to chill a bit. I wonder why she looked like she was going to be sick when I did this though?
