okay, so just because i'm a student nurse does not mean i want to practice assessments on you and offer my " medical advice. so many of my coworkers know i'm a student nurse, not because i broacast it but because they see my textbooks in my office and they see me studying at lunch. so since they see my maternity books they now know i'm obviously studying maternity.

so to make a long story short: i walk into the lunch area at work and see the art teacher. she is also about 25 weeks preggo. so i sit next to her to ask her to draw me an outline for my presentation and before i can even get the words out of my mouth she yells loud enough for everyone to hear " you're not touching my belly "! i reply: " i don't want to touch your belly, i just wanted to know if you can help me with the drawing i needed for a project". i was so irked by this. just because i'm a nursing student doesn't mean i'm always looking for someone to practice assessments on or practice patients. please give me a break here. :banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead:

Maybe she sick and tired of people asking her to sketch this or draw that just because she is the art teacher.

Goes both ways.
