What ridiculous things have you seen happen in the workplace?

This may be too broad of a question, but what crazy things have you seen happen in your workplace or seen another employee do? From the nurses who don't wear gloves...to the patients who bring you urine in a smacker's jar...to a dr. telling a pt's family that their father is "stable" even though he has crashed 5 times and is currently in the middle of another round of CPR...and so on. Please share!

Quote from ruby veedo you want tragic stories? or funny stories? i've got both.

All the following was in the same facility:-Aides not using gloves when washing the private areas of patients-Nurse having an affair with a patient (she was caught)-One aide smoking weed with a young patient on her lunch breakThere were many more crazy things there, but I worked there about 4 years ago so this is all i can remember now.

Quote from pink_shoes99Lol...I had a pt bring me a urine specimen in an empty Smacker's jar once.

"weed with the patient"..that takes the cake, I've officially heard it ALL... lol

(never mind)

2 nursing student externs taking turns body surfing down the hallway on gurneys.Or the young "gentleman" the assistant head nurse was desperate for him to have a BM, telling her from behind the closed BR door he was having a doobie and would be out when he was done-she was tickled pink her laxative was working-we didn't have the heart to tell her it wasn't a BM he was having.

Well, perhaps considering I worked in a psychiatric hospital my stories may not quite be what you mean by ridiculous, but here are a few things that I have seen: -A Staff/Mental Health Tech get beat up so bad they had to go to the ER by a patient. -Patients beating up/jumping on other patients and having to send a patient out. -A shoe imprint from where a patient kicked another patient hard enough to leave an imprint on their back. -A full blown riot that required police intervention. -A patient body slam another patient to protect me and keep that patient from getting to me. -A patient rip a very securely bolted desk off a wall and attack another patient.-Same patient rip a piece of lined sheet rock off the wall and attempt the same as above. -A bible thrown at my head (Missed me!)-Ceilings completely torn out with lights hanging down. -A brick randomly falling out of the ceiling (tiles) after having a book thrown at it. That's just a small list, I've been spit on, knocked down, shoved, etc, luckily I haven't been punched, because frankly I probably would've lost my job. I'm sure I could keep listing, but sadly, over time these things became "the norm" instead of ridiculous!
