ugh, this is the third time this week the vending machine has eaten my dollar.
why do doctors always ask how our day is going at the end of a visit, like they're genuinely interested in our response when really they're
ugh, the internet is such a mess lately. every day it's some new drama or outrage.
just when i'm explaining a procedure for the 5th time to a patient and their family, my coworker walks in and whispers "we're down a nurse,
can't believe we're still arguing about whether or not healthcare is a human right...
people always talk about wanting a 4-day workweek, but how many of us are actually willing to take a 20% pay cut to make it happen?
why do we spend more time documenting than actually taking care of patients?? feels like the paperwork is suffocating me
short staffed again. i'm about to lose it if one more person asks me to do their job too.
i swear, the absurdity of it all. i'm running on coffee fumes and thin ice in the nurse's station because admin decided to schedule me to
short staffed again. admin can leave, but we're stuck here picking up the slack. vending machine dinner tonight. #nightshiftlife
why do people still try to order a large coffee at 5pm on a friday when they're clearly not gonna make it to work tomorrow
just had to explain to a patient that no, we can't just "google" their medication regimen and "yeah, just try it and see what happens"
why do managers think a 7am-7pm shift is "normal" when the majority of our patients are stuck in a mental health facility and have no
ugh, i'm so done with these patients today. like, i know they're sick and all, but do they really have to be such a pain in the ass?
i just witnessed a patient's family member yell at me because we didn't have their favorite brand of pain meds in stock and now i'm trying
ugh, why do docs always think we're just standing around twiddling our thumbs when they ask us to find them and we're actually running
can't believe our radio station is still stuck on 80s music - who plays soft rock at 8am on a monday
the vending machine is out of cheetos again. just my luck, i'm starving and have to settle for boring granola bars.
can we just admit that the "algorithm" is just a fancy way of saying "we have no idea what's going on and are just throwing stuff at the
another short staffed night shift. the vending machine is my dinner again. can admin please come work the floor for once?
another day of doom scrolling and people fighting over the dumbest crap online. can we all just log off for a bit and go touch some grass?
sometimes i just can't with the internet. like, everyone has an opinion on everything and they all think they're an expert.
when the patient says "i'm not a number, i'm a person" like bro i know you're a person, that's why you're here
short staffed again. grab whatever's left in the vending machine for dinner. at least it has caffeine.
why do coffee shops always seem to run out of the one syrup i actually want, like, every single time
i'm so sick of everyone on here pretending like they're some kind of medical expert just because they watched a few youtube videos.
the healthcare system is such a mess. short staffed again and admin keeps piling on more work.
when you're trying to chart and someone decides to have a 20 minute conversation with you about their cat's surgery
thank you for validating my adulting struggles
can't believe i just spent 12 hours on my feet and the highlight of my night was a stale granola bar from the break room vending machine.
seriously, can't we just get a reliable copier in the break room, is that too much to ask?!
this is such an important topic. we need to listen to and support women in reclaiming their autonomy.
why do people insist on microwaving fish in the break room fridge it's not like the smell of last night's leftovers isn't bad enough
the internet is the worst sometimes. everyone's got an opinion and they all think they're right.
can't believe i spent 10 minutes on the phone arguing with insurance to get a patient the meds they desperately need, only to be told "it's
ugh, the vending machine is out of my favorite snacks again. i swear, they never keep it stocked properly!
can't believe the hospital cafe still can't get the coffee machine working after all these months, it's not that hard, people
wake up? as if. like anyone can actually get a decent night's sleep in this place.
this is exactly why ppl don't trust the news anymore. how can we expect to get real info when so much of it is influenced by vested

ugh, short staffed again for the night shift. management doesn't care. They just want the beds filled.
the internet is such a mess these days. everyone's so quick to jump on the outrage train over the smallest things.
i'm so done with the constant shortages of supplies in the hospital. today we were out of iv bags for hours and had to ration what little
another night, another "i didn't get my meds" complaint from a patient who's been here for 3 days and i've given them their meds 12 times
i'm so sick of people saying "fake news" whenever they disagree with something.
the healthcare system is such a mess. how many times do i have to explain the same thing to 10 different people?
another short staffed shift. corporate can't keep hiring enough people to cover the schedule.
just had to tell a patient to take their trash home with them because apparently our hospital isn't providing enough trash cans for them to
