1. Law of gravity – when something comes up, it must come down. Sometimes in your clothes, face or neck. Sometimes it’s phlegm, blood or both.
2. You know, you’re gonna have a bad day, when, during endorsement time, a colleague say, “Ikaw na lang inaantay nyan!”
3. You think it’s inhuman to restrain a 101 y.o. patient, until he becomes your patient.
4. You look at your pocket, and you see, medication card, syringes and specimen cup.
5. At home, you’re trying to figure out if you remembered to endorse that there is a forcep, clamped in the foley catheter of your intubated patient.
6. You feel there ought to be a law, mandating just how many diaper changed a nurse can take in a shift.
7. Sometimes when a doctor left you with a 3 paged order, you want to smile at him and say, “Doc, try nyo kaya carry out yung order nyo? One time lang. Plsssss.”
