Got a Nurse in your life? Thank them for what they do- and then pass along this article to them. Hopefully they are having a better day celebrating than all these people below.

1. Wellp. Better hope she'll at least lie for you.

Today, I discovered that my supervisor, who I thought liked me, actually thinks I am incompetent and lack emotional intelligence. I'm a student nurse and I've just listed her as my reference for our single, statewide job application. There's no way to change it. FML

2. Yeesh.

Today, I'm so deprived of female attention that I got a hard-on when a nurse told me I have beautiful veins. FML

3. At least they won't forget you!

Today, I was volunteering at a local hospital. I was eagerly introducing myself to all the nurses, as I would be working with them all summer. It wasn't until I got home that I discovered the giant piece of lettuce stuck in my front teeth. So much for first impressions. FML

4. Aren't they supposed to be smart?

Today, I took my AP US History exam. For some reason, my school let the school nurse proctor the exam. She read the instructions for the wrong test and told us to seal up our tests, despite having another section left in that book. She wouldn't listen to us when we tried to tell her. FML

5. Annnnd, thank you for that visual.

Today, while working for a hospital security company, I had to assist in restraining a male patient while the nurses put a catheter in him. All I will say is that it looked like a worm trying to swallow a straw. FML

6. Listen to your nurses, people.

Today, I donated blood for the first time. It wasn't until I passed out on the ice during hockey practice that I remembered the nurse warning me not to do any type of exercise. FML

7. But WHY?

Today, I was at work and a lady came in with a cake - I work as a nurse in a pediatrics ward. While we were eating the cake, she told us she used her breast milk instead of normal milk. Now all of us nurses have to be tested. FML

8. Seems like your fault for believing that.

Today, working as a CNA, my nurse convinced me that in order to collect a stool sample, you had to have the patient take a dump in your hand. I only found out he was kidding after I collected the sample. FML

9. Time to consider a new career.

Today, is my first day as a student nurse. It was also the first day I learnt I was allergic to latex gloves. FML

10. Kitty nurse is officially job goals.

Today, during my shift as a vet nurse, I picked up a gorgeous cat for cuddles, only to discover it was covered with pee. And now I am too. I still have 4 hours of my shift. FML

11. GET THIS BABY OUT OF ME.

Today, I'm officially a week overdue. I went to the hospital, thinking I was in labor since I was in so much pain. Turns out it was just gas. The nurse couldn't hold back her look of pity as she told me this. FML

12. It seems like there may be something preventing you from being successful here.

Today, a nurse berated me for not being able to lift my leg myself so she could put a cast on. My leg is broken in two places. FML

13. What a let down.

World

United Kingdom

Today, at the doctor's, I dropped my pants and the attractive nurse assured me it was the biggest one she had ever seen. Unfortunately, she wasn't referring to my penis, she was, in fact referring to the huge haemorrhoid hanging out of my asshole. FML

14. But were the ducks cute?

What the Duck?

Today, on the way to class, I got distracted while watching some ducks and walked face- first into a concrete pole. I ended up with a black eye and three stitches. Even the nurse laughed. FML

15. Stop selling drugs, kids.

Today, I was suspended for "selling drugs on campus". I was trying to give the school nurse approved medication for my severe epilepsy. I'm suspended for 3 weeks and have to go to a drug seminar. FML

I cannot believe the one where the OP was fooled into catching a stool sample in their hands. They don’t cover that in school? And the patient was cool with that? If someone told me they needed to collect my poop that way, I’d double-check with someone higher up!

They ought to strep you of your ability to comment!

Some of these are made worse by the fact that beginning nurses are paid a measle-y salary. Get it? Measle-y? No? Ok I'll just go back to hiding under my rock
