catmag 337 Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 You know you're a nurse if... You would like to meet the inventor of the 'nurse call button' some night in a dark alley. Your sense of humour gets more warped each year. Almost everything can seem humorous....eventually. You know the smell of different types of diarrhoea well enough to identify it. You can tell the pharmacist more about the medication they are dispensing than they know. You screen your phonecalls on your day off to see if anyone from the hospital is trying to call and ask you to work. You've been telling stories in a restaurant and made someone either at your table or nearby retch or throw up. You notice that you are using more 4 letter words than you did before you started nursing. Every time someone asks you for a pen you can find at least 4 of them on you. You live by the motto "to be right is only half the battle, to convince the doctor is more difficult" You've told a confused patient that your name was that of your co-worker and to holler if they need help. (I have done this! ) Your bladder can expand to the size of a Winnebago's water tank You find yourself checking out other customers' veins in the supermarket queue. You avoid unhealthy looking shoppers in the supermarket for fear that they will drop near you and you'll have to do CPR on your day off. Your finger has gone places you never thought possible. You have seen more penises than any prostitute If you are not a nurse and have been sent this by a friend who is, it's just to help you understand our mindset and questionable mental status/sanity. Most of the time we function in spite of this sick sense of humour, fairly normally and very responsibly. Scary eh? Have to admit - every single one of those statements are true Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
