Sometimes there are just times you have to...

After three hours of waiting for one of my students to get his wrist checked( wait for the doctor visit, meet the doctor then wait for an xray, then wait for the doctor to read the xray, then wait for the prescription, then get sent to get it wrapped and waitt for that, only to find out its too swollen to wrap and we have to come back tomorrow) i finally stood up.

As we were walking out I turned to the 6 nurses that were all sitting down and had been since we got there, looking annoyed at everyone that was around them, and it was like pulling teeth to get an answer, or direction....so i turned to them and I asked them a simple question "Why did you want to be a nurse?"

They all stopped talking, looked up and stared blankly at me.
I then continued, "Well most people become nurses to help people, but you surely arent helping anyone by just sitting there on your ass."
