Today, I saw a man lying on the street. He seemed unconscious, so, being a nurse I went over and found he had choked. I removed the object from his throat and used CPR to revive him. My reward? A mouthful of vomit. FML

i think saving a life might be a reward

agree with everyone else. So you had to deal with an unappealing part of your job. I think it's worth it if it means saving someone's life.

At least you did a good job with the CPR.

Why we're you giving mouth to mouth without a barrier? Usually you refrain from that, unless that is how you got the piece of food out...

You mean he should have ignored him and left him to die if he didn't have a barrier handy?

so what your're saying is that you knew you might get vomited on you wouldnt have saved his life

know what they say all good deeds go punished or no good deed goes unpunshied

That's actually pretty common on someone who's choked and/or received CPR. As a nurse, I'd think you would know that.

Good thing nowadays they changed from that method

Well no shit he's going to vomit, did you do your training properly?
