Fat Nurses For the constant insistence that being fat has nothing to do with being lazy why is it always that whenever you have a POS co-worker its a butter breather. Im a hospital overnight RN. We'll work 7am to 7pm on the floor with patients, then have half an hour to give handoff report and clockout. I make a point to take verbal report right away so the poor 12 hour days can go home at a decent time and get some sleep. So this morning, not only was the morning staff not present at 7 to relieve us of the patients on floor, they had still not shown up at 730 when were supposed to clock out and go home! Normally im patient but im interning a student nurse so we needed to leave asap. Her and I start walking through the halls looking for these nurses, and what do we find? These three cholesterol cadets were hiding in one of the back rooms on their phones. "Teehee, we dont have to pass morning meds if we arent there to pass them at 7, the night staff will do it Teehee!" We cant leave without doing handoff. Its hard doing 12 hour overnights, driving home can be dangerous, but the Jabbas didnt care about our safety because they got to have an extra half hour to not have to 'deal' with patients. All humanatee nurses are horrible at their jobs and are rude/disrespectul. Fact.  Tldr; Fat nurses hid in back room on phones to avoid taking patients on time, made us all half hour late going home after 12 hour overnight shift.
