This placed a smile on my face...so funny!

Good Times!! LOL -I want to work with you all! <3

Yeah!!!!!!! Happiness from Viva. (Balloons and hugs). Glad you got your groove back.

Sorry to be a killjoy but I find this story disturbing, not funny. If I understand correctly, a resident tricked a nurse into looking at his genitals. This is called Indecent Exposure- the crime of displaying one's genitalia to one or more other people in a public place, usually with the apparent intent to shock the unsuspecting viewer and give the exposer a sexual charge (The Free Dictionary.com). Then you all laughed at her humiliation which could be characterized as a hostile work environment, depending entirely on how the employee took the prank. If she dreads coming back to work because of this and similar experiences then that would qualify. I also have a problem with your statement that if she doesn't like getting pranked at work, she won't fit in. Being the butt of jokes at work is not required, and has no place in the professional work environment. Perhaps there's something I'm missing here, but no one likes to be laughed at.

I work Tuesday through Saturday. I LOVE my Saturdays.

Left a smile on my face! Thank you for the story.

Made me love being a nurse all over again

My first job was similar to what you describe. The comraderie was unique. No other place I've worked ever clicked like that one. Your post made me think of things I haven't thought of for a long time. Maybe that's why I enjoy what you write so much.

As always you put a smile on my face and a LOL that my kids want to know "what's so funny?". Thanks Viva!

Had a rough day but this story managed to lighten my mood, thank you!
