Subject: You know you're a nurse.....
You know you're a nurse if...
Your sense of humor gets more warped each year.
Almost everything can seem humorous...eventually.
You know the smell of different diarrhea to identify it.
You wash your hands BEFORE you use the bathroom.
Discussing bodily fluids over a gourmet meal seems perfectly normal to you.
You think that caffeine should be available in IV form.
You get an almost irresistible urge to stand and wolf your food even
in the nicest restaurants.
You notice that you are using more 4 letter words than you ever knew
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."
Your bladder can expand to the size of a Winnebago's water tank.
You avoid unhealthy looking shoppers in the mall for fear that they
will drop near you and you'll have to do CPR on yo ur day off.
Your finger has gone places you never thought possible.
You have seen more penises than any prostitute. (or vaginas then a gigolo)
If you are not a nurse and have been sent this by a friend who is,
it's just to help you understand our mind set and questionable mental
status/sanity. Most of the time we function in spite of this sick
sense of humor, fairly normally and very responsibly.
Scary, huh?
