I'll never forget watching ICU nurses go out for cigarettes... I'll never fathom it

@SW-User I remember a time when nurses had to follow the Doc. with an ashtray and held it while the Doc. examined the patient. Also when the Doc. came to the nurses station the nurses had to stand and give the chairs to the Doc.s and fetch charts when ordered by the Doc. This is all true.

@SW-User It is, but probably a coping mechanism working doubles and triples takes a stressful toll, I was one of the puffers hon.
