Nursing Humor - Living With a Nurse


It´s hard to live with a nurse because...



1) When you forget to flush the toilet, you get a complete analysis with a plan on how to correct any noted problems.



2) Thanksgiving dinner comes in pre-cut small pieces because she doesn´t want to have to perform the Heimlich maneuver and be reminded of work on the only holiday she´s had off in years.



3) You´ve been awakened from a dead sleep in the middle of the night to find her shaking you because your breathing patterns were a little too close to a Cheyne-Stokes rhythm.

feel free to add !!!!

Wait until he has to go to work with you for something and gets a load of the craziness. But I guess that depends on where you work. When I was circulating I got called in on emergencies a few times as second call and took my daughter (she was in 4th or 5th grade). Both times she just waited - and cleaned gurneys and folded linen and helped straighten the supply room. The scrub nurse paid her!

we have several nurses in the extended family....we all sit together but isolated from the rest of the family at holidays cuz we tend to "talk shop" and it can gross out the rest of the family. They have actually asked us"how can you eat while you talk about that stuff"...they don't laugh at our jokes either.
