I got 2 Star Wars stickers on my bracelet the last time I was in hospital. I was so excited! (I'm 49 BTW)

Make sure he sees you give two the next person. Maintain eye contact, show dominance.

I don't think I've ever had a sticker, smiley or otherwise, on my hospital ID bracelet, suddenly anxious that I've been a dick accidentally.

Yay for passive-aggression.. sometimes it feels so good lol

On one hand, I am nice to nurses because I try not to be a dickhead. On the other hand, I am also nice to nurses for the perks. STICKERS.
sunhammer
But still, you are nice to the nurses. Win - win for you all. It's working in the corporate environment as well. It is a good strategy.

I'm a cashier. When a customer is rude, I give them ugly, dirty pennies instead of clean and shiny ones.

As somebody who spent some time in ERs: there is no excuse to ever be rude to the people saving your life. :(
AngryFennec
That seems a tad harsh.

Not harsh enough. Frowny sticker.

In case you haven't heard, we now prefer the term "alt-write" over grammar Nazi as its a bit of an old saying.

I don't see how people don't understand what a difference being nice to nurses and secretaries can make.
mountainofpuppies
docs fly in and out making the calls, but they'd be lost without the other team members, and young docs are lost w/o them
LongoloidFartExplosion
Secretaries have been the rudest employee's I've ever interacted with.
ICollectMemes
After I got shot I was nice to the nurses, making jokes and stuff, and they were a lot more polite to me than the ass in the next room.
Kyman201
Reminds me of that Borrowers movie, where the bad guy demands a receptionist give him directions, and he gets this complex path. (1/2)
Kyman201
and the kid asks politely and the receptionist just says "Take the elevator to the fourth floor and it's the third door on your right"
RingSting
I know right, they are there to help you.
mcchoad
I don't understand why you wouldn't be nice to everyone until they give a reason not to be. Even then, usually tolerant at the very least.
DeadOnionSaysWhat
Yep, secretary, scream in my ear, see how long you sit on hold, I hate screamers.
WhatTheFrench
Oh my god Karen, you can't just call people secretaries anymore!
LookingLikeASnack
That basically applies to anyone underpaid who has to put up with your shit and can be petty. Waiters especially.
vampyrita
Food workers in general. A guy was nice to me today, so i told him how to word his order so it was cheaper. Wouldn't have if he'd been rude.
theshoeminator
Sometimes people are in so much pain & frustration they can't help but be assholes. Doesn't excuse the ppl who are just cranky bastards.

I broke my shoulder and kept cracking jokes from the strecher. And yes that was a pun.

There's no negotiating with periods, they exist to fuck people up.

my sister is a nurse as well as whole family. i try to be as easy a patient as i can be. they have other shit lords to deal with
stormegedendarklordofall
My cousin is a nurse and some of the shit she tells us about is ridiculous!
aerofoil
My sister, too. I went to the ER, tried to be the best patient and not complain, they didn't believe me. Until the MRI came back.

Amousewithchees
Definitely. I mean in the nurses case, those are the people controlling your painkiller drug supply in the hospital...
Amousewithchees
And the secretary case? Yeah they can make your meeting go well, or warn their boss you're a complete ****, screwing over your meeting.
AnalBumCoverFor7000Alex
I stopped being nice when she brusquely told me they couldn't use the weight I measured on my scale at home. All naked and accurate like.
theresgarlicinthatnebula
You want shitty pain control? Because that's how you get shitty pain control.
AnalBumCoverFor7000Alex
What, her inaccurate mechanical scale?
RoundThreeFIGHT
Why would they trust that information though? People lie about their weight all the time.
AnalBumCoverFor7000Alex
Because there's so much trust in healthcare /sarc. Legit point though. But 12lb over is pretty inaccurate.

LowKeyTroll
Generally, I hate seeing FB posts after I already saw the thing here, but if I don't see this quote on FB soon, I'll have the disappoint.
Incidentally
I feel like the smiley sticker could be used as a "be extra nice to this one" sign.

Secret code between nurses!
CMFMTNPPL
Probably is, it's like saying blood drawing should be easy means they don't have track marks and blown out viens
Pizzajesus
What's the hard means? A bowie knife and a bucket?
CMFMTNPPL
Hard to find a good vein that's not blown out or infected,
Zombraina
Lots of needle stabs until they can get into a vein. It is unpleasant.
