Confessions of an ICU Nurse

How did the capture my being so well in one sentence?

When someone asks me to look at their rash….

My work bff and I trying to pretend we know whats going on in front of patients…

Me to every new nurse who says “Im here to make a difference…”

Every nurse trying to psych themselves up in the parking garage before their shift.

When your shift suddenly falls apart but there is no way you are letting it ruin your day...

Floating to a different unit and trying to fit in...

When my work bff and I are having a horrible shift but its ok because we have each others backs...

When I listen to night shift tell me all the things they did not do... and my inside source has already told me that they sat around all night.

Just figured I'd pass this along. If you are working 11+ hours on election day and wouldn't be able to vote- you can actually do an "In-person Absentee ballot" at designated locations. I was able to vote today in minutes at the courthouse near me. Go online and look in your area for the option! Working is no longer a valid excuse! Let your voice be heard!
