funny work stories

So, I wanna hear some funny work stories. Last night was just a terrible night at work, and quite sad. So I wanna hear some enjoyable, and maybe even funny work stories!!
 
i have one, I brought this guy guy back to join my team at work again, and he keeps posting bullshit instead of solid bodybuilding related stuff.
 
so your not going to tell us what a code black is, so i will take a guess......when a bunch of african americans bum rush a store and steal all the products....code black!

was i close?
 
lol

Code black is when an ER is overwhelmed with patients, to the point that the ER can't treat all of them. You have to put all non trauma/cardiac arrest ambulances on diversion.
 
my ex is an RN and worked emergency room for a while, she hated it! i dont know how you guys and girls do it, im not good at seeing wounds, or blood, or crazy people for that matter
 
I love medicine. Nothing gives me more pleasure.

Well, maybe a good orgasm, but that's a whole different story.

The ER is a beast that nobody can understand unless they work it. I always find it funny when floor nurses and ccu nurses complain about the ER sending them tons of patients.
 
the biggest complaint i heard from her and other RNs there was they did all the work while the doctors didnt do shit lol, i have no idea if thats true but thats what she said

she also got into big trouble for not correcting what the doctor wrote on a chart, The doctor wrote the patient was to get so many MCG's injected of something, and he accidently wrote down 200 when it should have ben 20, and my ex gave the patient what the chart called for and what the dr wrote down, 200mcg, and the patient got sick over this shit but was ultimatly fine, but my ex is the one who got into trouble for NOT knowing better , and for doing exactly what the doctor asked, that shit amazed me, she must have cried about it for days on end

this definitely happens. RN'S and ER Techs do all the leg work in the ER. The doc is there to run the show, if you will. In larger hospitals, with more doctors, the doctors are much more hands on with their treatments. However, in smaller hospitals, where the doc to nurse ratio is like 1:4, the nurses will do the majority of the patient care.

Yea that story about your ex happens a lot. I can't tell you how many times a doctor ordered something in error. One of the jobs of a nurse is to have their docs back, and look out for that stuff. When the doctor is doing med orders for 30 or so different patients, errors can and do happen.
 
Since Cloudstrife wanted funny work story, here one from my 27 yrs of running a gym:

Back in the 90's we were having issues with some guys not racking weight plates so I had the bright idea to start confiscating 45lb plates they were left on the floor.....so I hauled them to storage for a couple days, really no deterrent as I had plenty......but about that time the urinal in the Mens room needed a new flush valve so I took it out of order for a day until I could install a new one, so I had an Out of Order sign above the urial.

Well someone in rather sloppy handwriting writes this on the out of order sign:

I took the plates because you guys weren't racking yr weights, now I'm taking the pisser too and if it continues the shitter is going next!!
Bill (my name)

I about blew a stitch laughing!!
 
Man....I wish I could divulge more details to you guys sometimes. This ER provides me with so many stories.....so man sad....funnny stories.
 
Here is my very first funny work story (kinda).
When I was 10 yo two friends and myself were walking to the park to play basketball on a Saturday morning. Some sweet little old lady came out and asked if we would like a job and that she paid really well. Being nice we said sure what would you like us to help you with. She explained the gentleman who placed gravel in her driveway had to dump the whole load in her yard because of the overhead phone line. She wanted every last Stone placed in her driveway. We spent the biggest part of our Saturday on our hands and knees throwing a handful of stone at a time into her driveway. Towards the end she stood over us pointing out every single Stone we missed until she was happy. She was so happy she was giggling as she went in the house to get our pay. She comes out and hands us $1.00 yes one single dollar and tells us we can split that 3 ways. We didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Needless to say we learned a valuable life lesson that day.

Probably in her day that was good $ LOL, I know waitress tell me same thing, that older people are still on 1969 money scale when it comes to tipping
 
I was interviewing a woman for a supervisor/audit position. I asked her how she would go about building the audit lart of her job (it was a new position, so we didnt have rules in place yet). Her response was to walk around and ask people if they were doing their jobs, because people never lied to her.

I asked why she sId that people didnt lie to her, and her response was 'when you look like me, people tell the truth so you sleep with them.'

Needless to say, she got the job
