funny work stories

[cloudstrife1218]

So, I wanna hear some funny work stories. Last night was just a terrible night at work, and quite sad. So I wanna hear some enjoyable, and maybe even funny work stories!!

[Presser]

i have one, I brought this guy guy back to join my team at work again, and he keeps posting bullshit instead of solid bodybuilding related stuff.

I just got back from work. I was supposed to get off at 11 last night. You know what a code black is?

[Presser]

lol, no but i think im going to learn in about 2 minutes......

[cloudstrife1218]

yea......it was bad. lol

[Presser]

so your not going to tell us what a code black is, so i will take a guess......when a bunch of african americans bum rush a store and steal all the products....code black!

was i close?

[cloudstrife1218]

lol

Code black is when an ER is overwhelmed with patients, to the point that the ER can't treat all of them. You have to put all non trauma/cardiac arrest ambulances on diversion.

my ex is an RN and worked emergency room for a while, she hated it! i dont know how you guys and girls do it, im not good at seeing wounds, or blood, or crazy people for that matter

I love medicine. Nothing gives me more pleasure.

Well, maybe a good orgasm, but that's a whole different story.

The ER is a beast that nobody can understand unless they work it. I always find it funny when floor nurses and ccu nurses complain about the ER sending them tons of patients.

the biggest complaint i heard from her and other RNs there was they did all the work while the doctors didnt do shit lol, i have no idea if thats true but thats what she said

she also got into big trouble for not correcting what the doctor wrote on a chart, The doctor wrote the patient was to get so many MCG's injected of something, and he accidently wrote down 200 when it should have ben 20, and my ex gave the patient what the chart called for and what the dr wrote down, 200mcg, and the patient got sick over this shit but was ultimatly fine, but my ex is the one who got into trouble for NOT knowing better , and for doing exactly what the doctor asked, that shit amazed me, she must have cried about it for days on end

this definitely happens. RN'S and ER Techs do all the leg work in the ER. The doc is there to run the show, if you will. In larger hospitals, with more doctors, the doctors are much more hands on with their treatments. However, in smaller hospitals, where the doc to nurse ratio is like 1:4, the nurses will do the majority of the patient care.

Yea that story about your ex happens a lot. I can't tell you how many times a doctor ordered something in error. One of the jobs of a nurse is to have their docs back, and look out for that stuff. When the doctor is doing med orders for 30 or so different patients, errors can and do happen.

Since Cloudstrife wanted funny work story, here one from my 27 yrs of running a gym:

Back in the 90's we were having issues with some guys not racking weight plates so I had the bright idea to start confiscating 45lb plates they were left on the floor.....so I hauled them to storage for a couple days, really no deterrent as I had plenty......but about that time the urinal in the Mens room needed a new flush valve so I took it out of order for a day until I could install a new one, so I had an Out of Order sign above the urial.

Well someone in rather sloppy handwriting writes this on the out of order sign:

I took the plates because you guys weren't racking yr weights, now I'm taking the pisser too and if it continues the shitter is going next!!

I about blew a stitch laughing!!

I bet theres some tragic stories where you lose someone while their loved one is standing right there. How awful that would be
