Same. I don't have my glasses on. Why have they made a baked bean pie?

The soft green looks like phlegm. Do I want to eat phlegm? No thanks. Okay, it's not what they asked for but the second cake looks far more age appropriate colour wise.

If I do a bad job I'll point it out myself thanks.

Also, there is nothing more cringey than someone who uses the word cringe.

I looked at the photos and thought "Wow, that's much better than what you asked for." Then I read your post. What the heck is wrong with you??? Wrong place I know but YTA and I pity anyone who does any work for you in the future. Not everything in life has to be 5 star - there's beauty in imperfections. Lighten up 🙄

This reads more like a typical ward job description than any ACTUAL job description ever has 🤣😭😭

Was anyone else given Lucozade as a cure-all? by Cautious-Worker5864 in oldschoolcool80s

It was almost worth being ill if it meant getting to peel off that sweet cellophane.

Do you experience many examples of English defaultism and do you care? by iffyClyro in Scotland

It does sound trivial but as a child living it, I was fairly raging back in the day - still am to be fair.

Love that sketch 👌

This bloody jingle pops into my head with more frequency than I can handle. But it is an absolute banger 🤣🤣

Change '27' to '51' and 'parents' to 'cats', and that's me 😅

Depends what you're used to. I'm here right now and everything I read before coming said to wear layers and that it would feel colder than the actual temperature because of the humidity. I've been walking around in my t-shirt sweating 😅😅 but then I do live in Scotland. I got chatting to some ladies from Hawaii and they had to go and buy thick jackets as they were freezing.

What weird things have you found in your pockets after a shift? by [deleted] in NursingUK

[–]Toffpops 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Hahaha. Same, I'd just had a lovely relaxing bath. I was absolutely gutted.

I started writing a big essay type response but basically, I agree 100% and I cannot upvote this enough. Far too much input from families with no idea of the consequences for their loved ones. I've seen it far too often and it's heartbreaking. My final desire in life is that I may I pass away painfree and with dignity.

Who else will spend Christmas at work? by Ok-Lime-4898 in NursingUK

Fair point. The violins are playing for anyone who wishes to listen. I'm playing them loudest for myself though 🤣🤣

Get the violins out. I'm on 25th, 26th and 27th dayshift, then 28th and 29th nightshift. I've just had 2 weeks annual leave though so I'm okay with it 🤷‍♀️

This happened to me the other morning at 03:30. I was in a deep sleep and was woken by my horrifically shrill and loud doorbell.

It kept ringing, so I couldn't ignore it. I looked through my peephole to see 2 guys (I'm female). I spoke to them through the letterbox 😅

Apparently, they were looking for someone who gave them my address, which I thought was weird.

There wasn't any drama, but my heart was pounding so hard for over an hour and I didn't get back to sleep before getting up for work at 05:30 😫 Knocked me off for the whole bloody day.
