watch out....on a rampage...

this is the mean nurse talking. yep. this part of me hardly everrrrrr comes out. so, this is a very rare moment. and you may even catch me saying one, or a few things i may even come back and regret. :/ yeah, its kinda been one of those days. actually, one of those weeks.

so-you dont like 'nurses'. yeah, we are mean, and evil. thats what you think? well, maybe you need to flip the script. spend ONE day in my shoes. and i PROMISE you will kiss the feet i-and every other nurse-walk on. i am not saying our job is hard, i am saying, give the credit where its deserved.

maybe....you should....take responsibility for yourself! what an amazing concept! i mean, really? you are a grown adult, after all. however, if you expect me to babysit you and the 50 other patients that call or i see in a day-then YES your right, i probably will not be a happy person.

You smoke cigarettes? you eat over 3000 calories a day? but you are going to complain about healthcare costs and the care you are getting? psh. dont go there. as far as im concerned YOU are the reason healthcare is where it is.

i deal with more patients poop, pee, puke sputum than you even know. yes, i choose this profession because i love what i do. i care about people. and i DO love what i do. and i think its fair to say that most of them do.

could i do your marketing job? damn straight? real estate? yep. teaching? sure. finance. yeah-i can do numbers. i can do all that. can you do a day in nursing? starting IV's, drawing blood, putting foley catheters in? telling loved one's that they have a malignant brain tumor? or that their son or daughter just died in a car accident? no, i guarantee you cant. so before YOU complain about the job i do or how you HATE medical professionals and the job they do. shut up and think about what we do.

for the record....no one told me i do a bad job.....i know i do a good job ;) something i came across.....

and yes, i do feel better now that i got that out.
