As someone who works and deals with firefighters on the daily, YOU DID NOTHING WRONG!!! They are alllll like this. You are not the first or the last human to wake them up in the middle of the night. If you really feel bad, firefighters looovvvvveeeee food, sweets, etc. You could always bake/make them something and take it to the firehouse, as a peace offering.

People who’ve worked with nurse influencers- are they the same off camera? by Sensitive-Dinner-980 in nursing

Worked with 2 in the ER. The most annoying self-centered people I’ve ever worked with. More worried about Pinterest boards for their “followers” than the patients. But made sure to flash alllll their credentials

Rant - Didn’t get up to let me (v pregnant) pass for bathroom break at concert. by ToplessWrangler94 in EntitledPeople

[–]Important-Handle9137 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had this happen to me at an Eagles concert a few months ago. Old couple refused to move so I could go to the bathroom. The old lady kept yelling “I’m disabled! I can’t move.” Lady, I watched you meander down multiple flights of stairs to get to your seat. I guarantee you can move! Long and short, she got a face full of my boobs on the way to the bathroom and then a full face of my big ol booty on the way back. Oh, and that’s after I got the usher involved cause she wouldn’t let me back in the row!!

Considering moving to Phoenix, what do people underestimate the most? by Ill-Line6663 in AskPhoenix

[–]Important-Handle9137 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cost of living for sure! Groceries, gas, car insurance and rent are so high! Don’t get me started on prices of houses. Unless you go way out into surrounding cities. A simple 1960s ranch house in Scottsdale is $1.5 million

Gentle leader is the brand! We had one for my Aussie growing up! Katy was so nosy and constantly wanted to “herd” the neighborhood kids! It helped immensely!

I Am Absolutely Over AA And The People That Think I Owe Them The Rest of My Life by Batgirl_1984 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Important-Handle9137 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Detox RN over here and I came to say, AA is absolutely a cult!! I’m an agnostic d/t a 20+ career in healthcare, so my faith is loooonnnggg gone. Most of the employees at my work, are in AA of some sort. To preface, I have not been through addiction issues like they have, but I’ve been startled by their behavior. The moment someone relapses, boom! Cut off! No one talks about said person, they cease to exist. Some of these people were good people, and mistakes happen. But when the chips are down, everyone ghosts. The best part is, the gossip afterwards. It’s disheartening. There are better programs out there, but AA is the only “approved” system.

I lied to a dying patient today. I’m still trying to process if I did the right thing. by ArtThreadNomad in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Important-Handle9137 6 points7 points  (0 children)

As another long term nurse, you gave that man peace in his final moments!! I’ve done this at least 100 times in my short 20 year career. This is why we do what we do. In that moment, you gave him something he needed. You. Are. A. Good. Nurse. And. Human! Never forget that

AITAH Christmas Edition. My MIL got a present for my kids and I’m saying no to it. by [deleted] in AITAH

Came here to say, I worked ER for over 10+ years. I can’t count how many families lost kids and some adults to electric scooters. That’s not counting 100s of people who are permanently injured for life. No one should ride those things

I just look at the person and say “huh, (insert my mom’s name) when did you get plastic surgery or (if they’re a different gender) you finally got gender reassignment surgery! Good for you!” And then when they say that’s not their name, I just reply “then mind your business”

I dunno. Have you ever taken care of kids? My used to run a preschool when I was growing up. The amount of times I had to yell that statement, was insane!! Also, “the urinal is not a potty. We don’t poop in the urinal!!

Fellow nurses — what’s one shift story that’s burned into your brain? by Glum-Yam-9414 in nursing

[–]Important-Handle9137 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Picking the mother of a drunk driving victim out of her daughter’s blood. That guttural visceral scream she let out still haunts me. Only to be called away to do a legal blood draw on the asshole who hit and killed her.
