This is a new one-
ER nurse- "Patient X in bed 3 won't be over for their x-ray. They have to drive their wife somewhere. We'll call you when they get back."
Hmmm, I guess the husband's night sweats and chronic cough weren't worrying the wife very much. She still wanted her ride 'somewhere'.
The patient showed up 45 min. later. I made my student do the x-ray.
Better they get TB than me.

Ha! Rank has its privileges, eh?
Be nice to students! I hope you've all had TB jabs, although they are not that effective.
