In the 30+ years I’ve been doing this job I have been called a lot of names.
In the hospital I work in, we have a Senior Behavioral Unit. Last week I had drawn blood on a VERY sweet man.
The nurse came in to weigh him while I was labeling my tubes. For some reason this flipped his attitude 180*.
When they were finished I asked him if I could swab his nose. I was told to get my black a$$ out of his room!!
I am very white, blonde, blue eyed… ?
