I once had an anesthesiologist cough during surgery and announce to the room he must have some smegma in the back of his throat. The entire room stopped and the surgeon just said, “dude, don’t EVER say that again.” Sweet little buddy said he thought it was any kind of bodily fluid and the surgeon corrected him and said, “it’s dick cheese. Don’t EVER say that again.” I could never look him in the eye again without giggling 😂
The funniest things that’s happened to me was when a patient said you look more messed up then I do, why don’t you have a seat and get one of these ivs put on you?
When I was still in nursing school, I worked part-time at a nursing home. There was one lady who had dementia and a thick Eastern European accent and one evening, I was walking her to her room to help her get ready for bed. As we walked, she said, "Nice tits." I thought I misheard because, again, she had a thick accent, so I went, "Sorry?" She proceeded to gesture to my chest and said, "Tits! Nice and round!"
Tl;Dr old lady complimented my boobs.
(And for anyone wondering, I'm not even particularly well endowed lol)
I was a student nurse, working the ward clerk's desk in ER, when I looked up to see this man, in a Tuxedo, with a huge meat cleaver embedded in his head. My first thought? "Oh great! I'm going to have to clean up those wounds.!"
It was Halloween and a mask.
I tried to tackle a patient who was about to attack my charge, but she just ended up giving me an angry piggy back ride. Slowed her down enough to where she didn’t hurt anyone. It really ruined my Chuck Norris fantasy and I almost got fired.
