Have you ever had the kind of day

8 Where you are greatful for a bathroom break just so you can sit for a minute?
Definitely! Hope your next shift is at least a little less hectic!!

LMAO! Tough times come to all sooner or later. Those days are hard, but really hone the time management skills

Been there, done that. Got so bad where I worked that we started taking our cell phones with us. They'd inevitably page you overhead to come take admit orders on a patient. With a cell we called the desk and explained we were involved in a process of eimination and have the charge nurse take the orders. Hope things get better for you (they refused my suggestion to install a hospital phone in the can).

Yup. lol Hope next shift is a better one.

HaHa, I just told my mom this today, that with my last shift the only time I sat down was in the bathroom!

Where I work we carry phones. Just hate hearing the D#$* thing ring just as I start to pee! To the OP hopefully your next shift is much better!

I have to carry a phone too. It's inevitable, as soon as the pee starts to flow, the phone rings. 110% of the time. One time I had the phone in my front pocket and when I sat down something else in my pocket must have hit one of the buttons because I heard a beep. What did I see when I looked down? PAGING ALL!! Now, the phone goes on the corner of the sink when I go into the bathroom.

If there is a nurse out there that HASN'T had that type of day, I'd like to know if your facility is hiring!

My last shift was one of those. I didn't even get to pee.Of course I didn't eat anything, and only drank about 120ml of water.Maybe that's a new strategy. Think of how much more productive we'd be if we didn't have to mess with those pesky ole bodily functions.
