Woolies or Cole's workers, some of their stories are fucked. But also tradies
do one about uber drivers or taxis
can you do strip club workers
i could write in so much fun shit
lol, I work for UPS, and I can only imagine the worldwide repercussions of asking for those stories
Centrelink workers
nurses are either the kindest most angelic people alive or the terrifying girls who bullied you at school except older, there's no in between
Agreed! My first surgeon-assistant assured me (with the surgeon) that it would take 10 minutes. The local numbing did not work properly, but they said they'd be quick.
45 minutes later, it was really not working anymore and I was weeping in silence. After a particular harsh movement with the pliers, I sortof cried out.
She said; 'You remind me of a mother giving birth, the way you are heaving and crying' and she then proceeded to mock me for several minutes, telling me to 'push push, mommy!' and faking breathing-exercises with me (while I asked her to stop) and she kept cackling and laughing over me and telling me I sounded like a woman giving birth.
I emailed the surgeon, saying I did not want her for the next time. I then got a very calm and friendly woman that asked me if she could take my ponytail out, so I would lat flat properly (the first one yanked it out (together with a load of hair) without asking) and she told me that I was doing very well. It took another 45 minutes, drilling, cutting open my gums further and further, but I was absolutely okay with her.
@@Widdekuu91 jesus christ may that demon be sent back from which it came
@@Widdekuu91Holy f¿ck please tell me this wasn't endo/periodontal related. Curse my rotting jawbone, but think
I'd sooner risk ordering "ìnsulïn" over the dårk ŵeb than that.
@@sohsiouxmii5945 I'm not sure what endo-periodontal means in this case, I don't think it was. Inflamed gums...is that what you meant? Inflamed gums usually ruin the local numbing.
@Widdekuu91 Oh no, this is way worse in a gory NSFW sense. What's even worse still is no private health care = a min 7K for the first treatment alone.
The insulin bit is 100% true and has been done before by serial killer nurses. One only got caught because she confessed after over a dozen murders because she "felt bad". Imagine how many don't get caught 😬
Theirs legal ways too, my grandfather got put on an unlimited morphine supply, probably ended up killing him but it was the most humane way to go and nobody complained or said a word because we were just happy he wasn't in pain.
It's not a thing, high doses of insulin can be traced. Best idea is to not murder ppl.
new fear unlocked
@@Wednesdayat11 best idea is to burn the evidence
Not sure if can be traced or not, but as a diabetic who has given himself too much insulin once and is still here thanks to quick thinking friends force feeding me whatever sweets they could find, I've thought about the insulin thing myself...
My mom was a night ER nurse in a town close by the Mexico border.
I spent many a morning trying to eat my breakfast as she casually just rattled off some of the most traumatizing and hilarious stories I've ever heard. I still win at parties with them.
My favorite is The Green Door story. Some background: the green door was a very seedy brothel/bar/kidney donation station right across the border. My mom had plenty of patients who went there for a good time only to end up with some horrifying injury or disease, let it fester because they were embarrassed, and make it 100× worse.
My two older brothers and I are eating breakfast when my mom comes in and melts into the table. I, a naive child, ask her how her night was. This is the story she casually unloaded onto us:
She had a patient come in complaining of urinary pain, not unusual but annoying on a busy night like she was having. (Sick kids, couple stabbings, druggies, and the usual frequent flyers. A pretty standard night, just with more volume then their ER could handle.)
So she hands him a cup and asks for a piss sample. The dude refuses and eventually stammers out that he CAN'T pee. At all.
My mom asks how long this has been going on, and he says a couple days.
So this rigamaroll goes on for a while and she eventually convinces him to drop his pants. She looks at his trouser snake, which is leaking pus and has swelled to the size of, and I quote, "a particularly chubby toddlers arm", and grabs the doctor. Several tests and imaging later the full story comes out.
The dude had lied to his wife about going on a business trip and had actually spent the weekend at The Green Door. He doesn't remember much of the night besides taking some questionable cocaine and then waking up 12 hours later in a room by himself, dick hurting. He doesn't want to see a doctor and have his wife find out, so he ignores the pain. Eventually he gets worried about the state of his penis and comes in.
The imaging shows what appears to be IV line or some kind of tubing, knotted up and shoved up his urethra all the way into his bladder, blocking his ability to pee.
So the surgeon is called.
The guy ends up having his dick fileted open in order to have the tubing removed and clean out the infection, resulting in what will probably be life long damage to his ability to do well. Anything. With it.
Story gets better.
The next day my mom comes home with an update on the guy.
His wife had found out- considering the emergency surgery and all- and managed to get a fucking kitchen knife into his recovery room and get a stab in before security wrangled her and escorted her out.
To this day I can still see my brothers sitting at the dinning room table, cereal forgotten, white as a board, and cluching their cojones.
Very descriptive and scaring thank you
Scared straight should just send kids to the ER
oh god.
I dont know weather to cry, laugh or piss myself. Fuckin hell.
If that doesn’t convince a man NOT to cheat on his wife at a house of ill fame, I don’t know what would…
My aunt is a nurse and she told me two stories that stuck with me:
1. A couple showed up one night at the ER. They had apparently been engaged in some entertaining sexy times, but alas, were forced to stop when their respective genital piercings intertwined and became stuck. Somehow, this couple managed to shuffle into the back of a taxi and, still conjoined, took a ride to the hospital. Word quickly spread in the ER and the nurses began coming up with elaborate excuses to enter the room the couple were being held in as this was too incredible a situation not to check out for themselves.
2. When my aunt worked in the maternity ward, a young mother was determined to name her baby "Shithead". This woman was not a native English speaker and actually wanted the name to be "Shahid" or "Shaheed", but unfortunately didn't have the knowledge to spell the name correctly. The mother became greatly offended when my aunt tried to convince her "Shithead" is not the best name for a baby. They eventually had to summon a translator as my aunt's elaborate miming was unfortunately insufficient.
That mother was really trying to recreate the "when the teacher doesn't know how to pronounce your name" vine.
@@patcho7518 on a more wholesome but related note, story from 2 of my friends, apparently in both Inner Mongolia and some Slavic countries there's a semi tradition of naming your kid something along the tune of "worthless" or "shit" reasoning being your kid won't die, because the gods, spirits ect... won't want to take them if they have an ugly name
not sure about how true it is, but I think its actually really sweet if it is
The "Shithead" story is old, and it's apocryphal. It started as one of a series of racist jokes, which also included a baby named "Vagina." The orifginal versions include a punchline where the mother says something in African-American Vernacular, intended to suggest, well, that blackl people are just stupid. Another is twins "Lemonjello" and "Orangejello." There's never been proof that any of these happened.
The genital piercings one has made the rounds for years too. Did it happen? Gwetting dressed, into a car, out again, and into a building with your genitals stuck together would be several kinds of nearly-impossible.
It’s pronounced Sha-theed My friend who taught in London in the 90’s had a kid in her class with this name.
@@louisemuggeridge187 I'm not calling your friend a liar, but none of the folks who look into those kinds of claims have found any official record of a person named "Shithead."
My sister is a nurse and she told me about a guy that had taken his methadone but then vomited it up. Not wanting to waste his hit, he decided to inject his methadone vom into his leg (as you do). Not sure if he got the high he was going for but his leg went septic and had to be amputated.
Don't do drugs kids.
jesus. just when you think you've heard em all.
Now THIS is a new one for me 😂😂 patients will really do anything
I understand the urgency because withdrawal is a bitch, but that's way too far. Ugh.
tf... why not just eat it again lmao *slobbering up done vom like my dog does when she voms*
A buddy of mine is actually on methadone, it's prescribed for the pain his cancer and other health issues cause, and being an ex addict, and seeing him on days where he's thrown his own up, I can see why the guy got so desperate.
As a former IT guy in a hospital, I hated having to give placebos to nurses.
"The computer isn't working" and then I do literally nothing, tell them I fixed it, and they're absolute stoked.
I'd have repeat customers specifically ask for me, and I'd have to go out and not-fix the not-broken computer again.
Some of these clinics were a 90 minute drive from the office, so it was a great excuse to grab a steak lunch and a pint at a rural pub.
EDIT: But I gotta say, these placebo fixes weren't always unproductive.
While running around fixing problems that don't exist, I'd often find people with entire shopping list of real, ACTUAL problems. Broken mice, funky screens, jammed printers, etcetera.
They're usually very productive and friendly people who just work around the issue instead of filing a ticket.
So the problem is basically this:
The people always asking for help don't have problems, and the people who have problems aren't asking for help.

Chase the bag, bludge and earn bro, let the inner council worker strive within.
lol ID10T errors lol
Sounds like she knew it wasn't broken
"Hello, IT...Yaha... Have you tried forcing an unexpected reboot?"
I absolutely love nurses. I live in Russia and healthcare here is generally hellish. I had a kidney stone in 2015. At around 3am I was lying down in corridor (because of ward shortages) and these angels put me on a dropper and checked me every 10-20 minutes.
lucky to have not been drafted
@@burp2019 oh they can draft anyone no matter what, even if you sick beyond common sense
but that's totally different story, and I'm currently trying to find a way to leave Russia, but it's hard in my situation
@@quite1enough I hope you manage to get out soon, and that all goes well with that.
John Smith in Russia. What are the chances?
@@quite1enough hope all goes well for you!!
You could have included leech doctor in this video! Our vascular ward has a little tank of leeches, just chill there in the tea room. They are used on patients for tissue perfusion and appatently once they are full of blood the just pop off so the nurses often have to chase down leeches wriggling around the floor.
i imagine theres a clear trail to the little buggers though.
I love that Jordies assumed the cat had "bitten" the "gentleman's sausage" and that it being "stuck to the end" was not stuck in a different kind of way.
I was thinking it probably died from internal trauma because of what that fkn creep did to it 😢
@@selecta3818 I'm just hoping it was dead to begin with, disgusting regardless.
The guy obviously was a bit confused as to the saying, 'to get a bit(e) of pussy.' 🤦🏻♂
Yeah to be fair, I don’t know what end it was stuck either, but I assumed that end too. I don’t think think you’d try to root a cat in the face.
My mind went the same direction as yours. Jordies clearly has a much more innocent mind than his viewers
I once had a nurse tell me that she doesnt like crying children and thinks that most people should not have kids because they are, quote "too stupid and wouldn't know good parenting if it hit them in the face"... she worked in a matunity ward. I love that nurse.
@@msidiotbox2570 You prob shouldn't be a nurse if you don't understand children crying is a normal biological thing. And I'm not a fan of children either.
That nurse sounds like one of the bullies who later on become doctors and nurses. Bc it's always them 😭.
Well, she's not wrong.
@@Ilivedbih Gee, thanks for the "health-splain" re: crying being "normal". So, by that logic, nothing "normal" should be annoying? I was actually referring to the parenting part of the comment. LOL - thanks for your opinion. Opinions are like bums - everybody has one.
@@msidiotbox2570 She didn't say "It's annoying when babies cry." though. If that were all she said, most people would agree. So what's your point?
You should definitely do a pest control episode. We have some crazy stories in this industry, not to dissimilar from the stories in this one 😂
Did you work in pest control? If so then would you mind sharing some stories? I'm very curious
I work in mental health. You get some hilarious stories from the admission notes describing the events that led to patients being taken to hospital. One old lady put her garbage on the front doorstep and set it on fire, under the logic that she’d missed bin day so if she set it on fire, the fire brigade would take it away.
Another guy with Schizophrenia was having a bit of a crisis at home, his family called the police and when police and mental health workers attended, he started talking about how he was sexually frustrated. The notes then said he was “comforted by a female police officer” 😂😂😂
Most fun I’ve ever had reading a patient’s notes.
I think nurses deserve a part 2 honestly, this is just the tip of the iceberg. Maybe you can go through the specialties?
I think that doctors would have far more stories to tell. The health system is much more doctor led in Australia.
@@adams303 the reason nurses have so many stories is because they're the ones doing all the day-to-day drudge work with the patients. unless the doctors in australia are out there changing bedpans and sticking IVs, the nurses are still going to be the ones with all the good stories from the trenches.
@@adams303 it’s really not
@@TheGuindo doctors are the ones putting in IVs. This isn’t the US. Junior doctors are in constant contact with patients.
Yes
Ex-teacher here. I taught at a very disadvantaged school in NSW. One kid from year 7 had the cops called on him because he had brought weed to school. While in the principal's office with the police, he just casually told them that he had just grabbed a few buds from his grandma's stash. He also told them that she would not have noticed the weed was missing because she had heaps and was giving it to people all the time. So basically, this 11-year-old kid dobbed his pot-dealing grandma into the cops. And the fact that he was so chill about it, indicated that he did not think it was illegal or wrong.
Illegal mate, just Illegal ..... nothing wrong with granny having good buds.
In places where it is legal it is not wrong.
@@emptyemptiness8372 why does the legality of something determine if it’s right or wrong?
@@tomnorton-platford4896 You're too smart for the TH-cam comment section. Away ye go! 🙄🤦🏼♀️😂👏👌
@@louiseb6111 no no, they have a point. Freeing slaves was illegal for a considerable amount of time...... dare you to say it was wrong c*nt
Who tf rats on their grandma? 😢
Much respect for nurse’s, god i can’t imagine the stress, trauma and drama you have to deal with as a nurse. So, every rare moment I feel like becoming a nurse, i remember my mom’s work experiences throughout nursing school, to the ICU all the way to talking to every day patients that could turn the place upside down if they have the balls. Again, so much respect for nurse’s and other people who do so much for the community.
Had a patient who tried to overdose on insulin and ended up frying his brain so intensely he was non verbal, and had to be shackled and supervised by security for a couple weeks because he would have fits of intense violence. Really felt for the poor guy, I don’t know if you ever recover from that. A month or so on he was able to walk to the toilet with assistance but was still unable to talk or communicate really at all.
I don't hate ALL nurses, but my Aunt is a Nurse Practitioner and through them I've heard a lot of stories of people who really, really shouldn't be nurses. They do an incredibly important job, but there are a non negligible set among their ranks who choose to abuse their positions.
Agreed, but the same goes for teachers. I used to teach/care for children aged 4 to 12 and I have had at least 4-5 coworkers (granted, out of 20) that were horrific and genuinely hated a few kids for no good reason.
Physically dragging them across the floor, instead of making them walk to the hallway, mocking them if they had peed their pants (in fear) and explaining to very strict/tough parents that _they_ felt that the kid didn't deserve to play with his friends that day, over an accidental glass of water they spilled that day.
Especially talking about the kid in front of them, as if they were evil (like walking past a kid in the hallway and casually making them overhear; 'The kid that they accidentally pushed now has a gaping hole in their head, I hope there is no surgery needed" while the victimkid literally was only scratched and the kid in the hallway did not mean to push them.)
That sortof nastyness. I always spoke up about it and was always told that 'it was just discipline' and I was send off to do some dishes, since I was the intern.
One time I managed to protect a child from the teacher, that was about to "taunt him' because the kid he accidentally hurt, had to go to the doctor to get stitches.
He was crying in guilt already and it was an absolute accident, I was holding him to make him feel better and the teacher came in, started taunting him and I sang over her taunting and went; 'And we're going to say goodbye to Teacher wendyyyyy and wave her goodbye! Goooodbye Wendy! What a beautiful day it is today, lalala' until she rolled her eyes at me and left.
The kid was 4 and he was autistic, how cruel she was.
Had a nurse take me to a room, wave a large kitchen knife at me and tell me to off myself once because I asked for her help. Not a joke either. The profession needs a lot of improvement.
Find any job in the world that doesn’t have this issue. To target nurses alone is ignorant and foolish.
genuinely hate nurses for 1 very specific reason - as the kid of a nurse, you get to watch your parent be so amazing with other people and so caring and have amazing bedside manner, and have people tell you how amazing they are as a nurse and how everyone loves them, only for it to totally drain them and they ditch that personality the moment they leave work, so you get treated like shit because they have no more in them after the day. bonus points too that you have to be half-dead to get a day off school, mine even sent me to school with full blown chicken pox because "the other kids need to get it over with anyway". I only ended up having any kind of relationship with my parent that was a nurse after they retired from nursing, because they were finally capable of putting some of that empathetic energy into their family instead of leaving it all in the job.
Yeah... so the chickenpox vaccine was released in 1984. Here in rural SA we didn't hear about that until the late 90's, so if that happened anything this millenium that's pretty fucked.
@@bur1t0 that was 3rd grade, so I think 1992? that parent was incredibly unimpressed when the principal's office called and insisted they come pick me up and quarantine me.
ah yes, the get it over with misconception... nurses believe the wackest stuff :(
yikes :( I'm sorry that was how it went for you. my mom is a nurse but the worst it got for us was her working long shifts a lot and not being home as often as she'd have liked. her rule for staying home from school was that we had to be throwing up or have a fever above 99F. she _definitely_ would not have tried to send me to school with chicken pox, wtf
@@ellenorbjornsdottir1166 it's because chicken pox is much more mild and easy to recover from if you catch it when you're young. if you catch it for the first time as an adult it's very bad with high risks of complications.
this one's not just a nurse thing, it was a widespread practice among parents when i was a kid to try and have your kids catch chicken pox on purpose. i think i'm around the same age as OP and I remember all the kids in the same neighborhood would catch chicken pox at the same time, because once one kid got it all of the parents would send their kids who hadn't had it yet over to try and catch it from them. it was basically like old-school inoculation (y'know, where they'd give you cowpox on purpose to protect you from smallpox). Sure it puts you at risk for shingles as an adult, but even that was a lower level of risk than the risk from catching chicken pox for the first time as an adult.
the vaccine wasn't available in the US until 1995, at which point it became one of the standard childhood vaccines. so in 1992 the 'get it over with' thinking for chicken pox would have made perfect sense.
but even in that historical context, it is still absolutely psychotic to just send your kid to school with chicken pox and go "lol you're doing a public service" :| a _normal_ person would keep their kid home but tell all the other parents, so those parents could _choose_ whether or not they wanted to have their own kids exposed to it at that opportunity.
Thankyou nurses for all you do! It will never go underappreciated for one who spent his early years on the ward. You brought joy, and sympathy when loved ones weren't around and positivity when times were real tough, You lighten the load of the burden a patient faces just by being present and have the ability to make the insufferable - tolerable. So I thank you! (circa 1999)
Westmeid Children's hospital - neurosurgical ward)
I go to a uni thats heavy on its allied health focus (social work, nursing and paramedicine). In all those degrees theres two types of people. The: I genuinely want to help people/give back to a profession that helped/saved me. And the…well, the people who bullied you in highschool taking advantage of a career with a lot of power over vulnerable people type. And I’ve not discovered an in-between in my nearly 5 years and 3 going on 4 cohorts (and since its allied health, we work with each other alot).
My school bully became a nurse, and MANY people I've talked to have also told me their school bullies became nurses. I'm sure most nurses are cool, but I'm just saying that the same type of bullies that become cops are the same ones that become nurses.
not exactly my bully but one of the shittest people ive ever known, who rarely showed any empathy for anything is studying to become one. the stereotype is insanely real lmao
Don't worry, most of those types that become nurses don't last long or go into management are are universally hated. Most nurses are normies.
Nursing is all about the hierarchy. It's about the power over other people. It's about the ability to judge anyone and everyone and stand above them laughing.
Only 30 years ago (if I'm not mistaken) hospital wards were run by stern "Matrons" with those severe wimple-style headpieces. Encountered one who seemed quite sexually deviant, and even the patients found out about it.
@@pinao9928 they're egotisticals from birth
My grandfather was one of the first 3 male nurses in Australia, he still technically held the title of 'sister' before he retired, I've been trying to get him to write out his life because its some cool shit, he was even a herald for one of queen liz's few visits to rural Australia
Mister sister
Holy shit my dad was one of those three. He was based at North Ryde. On his first day he went to go get changed and there was a nurses change room and a doctors change room. Guess where he had to change... so he is in there sheepishly getting ready when the doctors come in and introduce themselves to the new "doctor" oh no he says I'm Mr Baker (back then you started as a Mr then became a doctor and once you achieved a certain level you went back to Mr) but then my Dad had to explain no, not a doctor... a nurse. They never spoke to him again.
Dad has some great stories, involving drinking alcohol on the job, crazy night shifts, weird things ingested and stupid pranks he pulled... oh he got Sister Baker all the time too.
He's literally my sistah from another mistah. 😂
@@quirkyredpanda7201 yoooo, thats fucking dope, i really wanna record my grandfathers life, the stories he has told me just about studying to become a nurse and his friendship with on the the matrons is wonderful, my grandfather also told me a lot about weird patients and scenarios
@@Sad_Elf my father started his nursing in mental health he has some absolutely crazy stories about what it was like during that time, so many kids were in the wards who these days would have a normal life. It's so sad but amazing how far we've come.
I couldn’t do healthcare, the stress was too much for me. Major props to every single person in the industry, you’re all OBJECTIVELY heroes.
My mom has been an ER nurse for nearly 30 years, in big cities like Memphis, but now in a less dangerous urban area lol. I worked with her for a few years as a tech in the same ER. Angels sent to hell is the most accurate metaphor for the nursing profession. It was eventually too much for me to deal with, and those years gave me an infinitely large amount of respect for my mother. If you have nurse friends or family, give them extra love! Thanks Jordy for this fucking hilarious Confession video, I've been waiting on this for a while xD
My mum is a nurse in the ER and scarred the shit of me as a kid with what drugs do to people. The all-time greatest one that has never left my memory is the story of a drug addict who got so high on meth that he stopped feeling anything. Apparently, his phone died and decided to charge it by shoving his entire charger cable up his hog that only the usb port was left on the outside. He plugged his phone in and passed out. When he got to the hospital, somehow, they did an x-ray, and it showed a tangle mess of wires leading up into his bladder. They had to pull it out slowly, and by this time, he had come down from his high and screamed in pain the whole time. I think I was 8 when i heard this at the dinner table
the more you know.
Lovely 😖
That could also be meth mixed with PCP. It deadens your nerves, and is the source of stories of people trying to break down doors or otherwise use nonexistent superpowers. A kid in my high school (a school that did not typically have a drug problem) took something that had been laced with PCP during a dance, wandered off, and tried to punch his way into a classroom through a brick wall. One or two and he was send to the ER with a LOT of damage.
Nurses are a strange breed. I work as a technology consultant/trainer and I worked in the new Royal Adelaide Hospital training nurses on a new software to make it more efficient for them to order things like equipment, food for patients, patients being moved etc. The nurses were so rude and basically refused to talk to me if I wasn’t bribing them with free coffee and told me they weren’t going to use the software. Having said that, I went into hospital for the first time ever recently for severe unexplained abdominal pain and I was being a bit of a baby about the pain tbh and the nurses were so kind and lovely!! And the nurses looking after me the next day were kind and lovely as well. So apparently nurses only have enough niceness in them to be nice to patients and anyone else that tries to talk to them while they’re working can get fucked
To be fair, I feel like the "only so many spoons to give" thing definitely applies to them. I've had a few surgeries and usually buy them flowers afterwards because they're always super kind and attentive. The shit they put up with, the violence, the abuse, the bodily fluids, is remarkable. I mean, I wouldn't do nursing for the salary I get paid now, let alone what they get paid. It's criminal how underpaid they are. But it's OK cos we all applauded them during the pandemic and put up a few signs/ads at tram stops. That'll do, right?
Also, join your union.
@@alizzan Plenty of people work in stressful jobs involving the lives of others without being arseholes. Miners work in far worse conditions and my friends in those jobs still don't have stories involving the same level of disregard for others that my own mother brought home about her nursing colleagues. There is a cultural problem with the profession and the excuses aren't good enough.
That whole systems development and roll out was a debacle. You unfortunately became the face for a lot of their frustrations with it.
@@LantanaLiz Miners get paid a squillion more dollars than nurses. That tends to give you a better outlook.
Underpaid and massively overworked, especially post covid, nurses have to ration their empathy, and unfortunately, sometimes an in service happens during lunch, taking up what little time they have to themselves
I’ve been in hospital several times in life. Treat your nurses well. I saw so many looking miserable because they care for patients that blatantly disrespect them.
More of this. I needed the larf
i worked as an assistant nurse for almost 8 years in a hospital, and some nurses i worked with were the biggest bitches i have ever met.
1) i had 3 of them make my life hell at work for about a year cause i stood up for my fellow colleague. they never got reprimanded. I never quit
2) some nurse i worked with were the laziest people i met. they would do their med rounds and then sit their ass on the nurses station and not do a whole lot. expected me to make their beds feed there patients ect.
3) i ended up in hospital 2 over the past 2 years both happened in Emergency, the first time nurse laughed at me thinking i was constipated i was actually trying to pass a gallstone. the second time the nurse in Emergency when i walked in i was about to pass out. I advised them that i was about to black out and she angrily told me i was hyperventilating and to breathe slowly. turns out i had a deep vein thrombosis and it broke off from my leg and spread through my lungs.
mind you i have also worked with some really nice nurses as well.
Yeah I'm in an emt class and my teacher definitely has some qualms about emergency nurses specifically. For example you could have a hypoglycemic patient who was not acting like themselves so you get them in the ambulance and give them some orange juice if they can swallow properly. And the emergency nurses would question why you even brought in the patient because they seemed to be doing fine.
It could be a result of being overworked and having ptsd from some of the patients but ems absolutely see some horrible stuff and still put their patients comfort on a pedestal.
Yeah all the bitchy girls from highschool became nurses.
💀 God I feel the being an inpatient one
The amount of times, even currently, from either GP surgery or hospital I have been pushed off for "being too worried" and now I'm being urgently investigated with the possibility of having stomach or bowel Cancer 🙃 not like I haven't been having severe stomach issues for years now, much worse over the past year to the point of not eating for days on end because it's too painful and makes me so nauseous I could pass out
Each time family were in hospital there is always one bitch nurse, always.
Goes to show that no matter the profession, you'll always find a bitch. One day in retail, I had a mild cold that blocked my sinuses. Between the volume of customers and high mucosal buildup, I didn't get to just blow my nose enough. A nurse my colleague served loudly told him I'm medically unfit to work and the company needs to do something about me lest I harm anyone, then stormed off. Don't have anything against nurses, I have a lot against condescendingly pretentious twats.
The Insulin thing happened at the Hospital I worked IT at last year, guy had been a RN for like a decade and had multiple deaths on their shift. Think they confirmed 2 cases were murder with some more suspected. Johnathan Hayes is their name. The craziest part is he was voted one of the top nurses and interviewed in a couple papers years prior.
Why do you keep saying they? Was there one or two killers
@@cianmac3934 In English 'They' has been used as a singular pronoun since the 1300s and as a plural since the 1200s. It's perfectly normal to use they to refer to a single person.

There was a nurse in the US that pulled this.
He was seen as some savant hero cause he always knew why the patient was coding or how to help . . . because he was the one poisoning them. They suspect he as an adrenaline junkie with a saviour complex, hospitals moved him around like a touchy priest cause the crash/death number on his shift were always sus, along with the saviour thing, but didn't have enough proof at the time to convict.
I had to go to the ER once. The nurses were all literally the best people i've ever met, one of them even got me to laugh when I was at the lowest i;ve been in my life, so nothing but respect to them.
I’m glad you’re still with us x I’ve been in the same situation and I’m proud of us both
I was having relationship troubles and talking to a nurse who I had a friendly relationship with overall at my retirement home job (if you have the resources and you love someone who needs assistance, please don't send them here, they're not good places) and I told her that I wasn't clicking with my partner and she went "yeah you have to find the right one and communicate well, I cheated on every single partner I had before my husband because they couldn't meet my needs--" she said more but I felt like she had just thrown a pie in my face I was FLABBERGHASTED
Having bartended for many many years, I can confidently say that nurses are in the top 3 worst customers right next to Finance workers and Footy fans
As a fellow bartender. I can agree to that, footy fans are the WORST though.
i am a footy fan
i hate sports
Tradies are the worst customers but they are the worst people in general so no surprise
BARTENDERS CONFESS THEIR SINS!!

I actually know someone who's an overnight emergency room nurse and she's the nicest person ever. So nice that she made someone else I know into a better person simply by going out with them for a while. She's just an angel. Save for one thing.
Whatever evil she has is released every four years when the winter Olympics happens because she likes laughing when figure skaters fall down during performances.

I like the fast food ones. I used to work in a sandwich shop and my first manager would sometimes wrap one with two or three stickers and then toss the sandwich over the counter to the customer. People liked it and it was no big deal. He left to open a new franchise and one of the old assistants was promoted. He wanted to keep the "fun" going but wasn't as good at wrapping sandwiches. Or getting the customers attention to see if they were cool with catching it. I'll never forget he wraps this sandwich with one loose sticker, yells out "NUMBER 10" and then overhand hurls the sandwich across the lobby at the customer who isn't even paying attention. The sandwich unwraps mid air and the sandwich hits him square in the face leaving mayo and lettuce on his face and suit coat. Best moment of my career. All the employees just started bursting out laughing and the guy came and yelled at my manager. Later he hung the corporate complaint on the poster board in the back by the schedule. It read "the manager threw a full sandwich at my head, unprovoked and out of the blue. The rest of the staff laughed and encouraged him. I will never eat here for the rest of my life". 😂😂😂

My entire family is either Nurses or Doctors. These stories are just tuesday night dinnertable talk.
This is how committed you are to providing a higher standard for Australian journalism - you're even covering human interest stories.
A few years ago I became very constipated and was admitted into the ED, my mother was an admin type person so a lot of the nurses and drs knew who I was (small rural town).
I was incredibly ill and needed to have a rectal suppository type dealio done to move my rock hard shit along so I could get going.
This later on in life nurse who did the procedure on me was super chill despite having her finger jammed up my ass for several minutes helped me stay calm with small talk.
About 90 minutes had passed and the rock hard shit that had been slowly working its way towards my stink hole was finally ready to be dispelled from my system.
This same little old nurse nurse helped walk me to the toilet (I'm 6'2 115kg) and sat by me for 25 minutes whilst I openly wept as several kgs of harden and liquid shit rocketed out my ass so violently I thought my insides we're going to be expelled into the toilet.
She was very supportive during the entire ordeal and a few weeks later when I ran into her again at a "brunch"
At my mother's house she informed me that - "it was a pretty standard thing and wasn't even close to some of the shit that happened that week"
That made me spit out my smoothie. Thank god it wasn’t a chocolate one…
I work as an orderly. I originally put my resume in at my local hospital because I wanted to perhaps go it to a career in nursing. However, working as an orderly has made me realise you have to be a “different breed” of person to be a nurse.
Can confirm. Fixing poop issues is such a standard part of my job as a nurse. And there's no need to be embarrassed about it either! Your nurse will likely even be a little relieved, like, "phew, a nice case of constipation. So glad it's not a GI bleed"
I knew a nurse who was a junior officer at my local army cadet unit. She told me her craziest story was about this old fella who accidentally chopped off his hand while working on something in his workshop. He put it in an esky, drove himself to the hospital, and was super casual when he walked up to the emergency desk and explained what had happened.
Had a patient who tried to overdose on insulin and ended up frying his brain so intensely he was non verbal, and had to be shackled and supervised by security for a couple weeks because he would have fits of intense violence. Really felt for the poor guy, I don’t know if you ever recover from that. A month or so on he was able to walk to the toilet with assistance but was still unable to talk or communicate really at all.
Also one time someone told me a story of someone who came in with abdo pain, they took them in for surgery thinking they needed to take the appendix out. While in theatre they somehow figured out the patient was just actually massively constipated, so while they were under anaesthesia the surgeon manually evacuated (with his fingers) while the junior surgeon applied rotating pressure to the abdomen. Apparently a football sized amount was left on the theatre table.
I developed chronic back pain from having two surgeries called Pleurodesis surgery to fix my lungs so they wouldn't collapse. Eventually I got addicted to the pain medication and decided to get off it. I went to a detox center, I got so unwell they had to send me to the local Hospital. The nurse, was a horrible person. She assumed I was "junkie", not someone who was prescribed pain medication without knowing how addictive it could be as was never properly informed (I was only 23 at the time).
She made me wait 5 hours in the ER waiting room. I was so cold I only had shorts and a shirt on. The seats all had arms so I couldn't lie down. I felt so sick I had to lie down so I lay on the floor and she yelled at me and told me if I didn't get up and sit she would call security and they'd "remove me". I explained to her my situation, and she couldn't have cared less. I was in so much pain I was making involuntary moans and after a few times she told me to "Stop whining and moaning".
All i needed was 5 minutes with a doctor, who could give me the suboxone and I would have been fine, but I was made to wait 5 hours....I almost walked out with no ID, no money, no clothes and no idea where I was. I asked her if I could use the phone to call my dad. She said no. I asked again she said fine but you have to wait until its not busy. After 3 hours she finally let me use the phone. I don't know what my dad said to her, but after that call she quickly got a doctor to come see me, they took me through and gave me suboxone and I was asleep and ok within 45 minutes. I didn't get a bed, just a chair but I was so exhausted I fell asleep anyway. She was a horrible nurse, judgmental, rude, and seemed to take pleasure in seeing people suffer. Luckily its wasn't my local ER, which I've been too many times and the nurses there have always being absolutely lovely.
Sorry for the long read.
I’ve got a good one. Had a guy in the same health organisation than me. He used to be a bariatric (fat person) paramedic. Called to a lady who had been bed bound (in a chair) for 5+ years. After removing the wall to get her out, they lifted her up from her chair. Under her was a mummified cat that had been festering for years.
jesus christ my eyebrows shot right off my face reading that last sentence
holy shit that poor cat...
I wanna see military confessions. We all have stories. I know I do.
I got hospitalized once because of a severe allergic reaction and during night, the nurse came to replace my IV needle, she came alone and I asked if you need a hand since my mother (who is a doctor but wearing casual clothes since she's not on work hour) is accompanying me in the hospital and she said its fine. Skip to the replacement procedure and blood starts flowing out of my hand when she pulls out the current needle and there were no tissue close at hand to not keep it not messy, she just immediately asked me to grab any tissue nearby and the closest tissue box is on a table across my bed, I had to shout to get my mother attention when she's reading on the corner of the room and help the nurse keep the blood cleaned.
The tense music in the background somehow just makes the whole cod story even better when can hear it through the silent laugh wheezes lol
Disclosure: This story isn't about me. I'm not personally a registered nurse, however I'm twice long-course licensed for first aid, studied medicine for years, and served half my army service was as hospital staff at Gaza(aiding in surgeries, administering/controlling IVs, etc.).
This story is actually about my first medical instructor back when I was in high school. It was an optional year-long course, and we were only 2 students, both of us mature yet with devil-may-care attitudes for lack of a better term, two reasons without which I doubt she'd share what she did.
It was a heatwave summer, the hospital was working on generators and had to cut the ACs. Coolers were basically nonexistent outside of high-end offices at the time. Long story short, she opens a pack of plastic cups, goes to the fridge, pulls out an unlabeled bottle of clear liquid, pours and hands it around the entire triage.
It was acid. They all died. No, she didn't face criminal charges.
Not to take away from the grief, but the ovaries she has to keep working in the profession after that must be gigantic. Dang.
*Edit:
Literally just remembered this. I was escorting a lady from the surgery ward to her unit. She was scheduled for knee surgery, the entire leg marked, stenciled and lettered perfectly.
Then I noticed that they operated on the other (completely unmarked) leg. You can't even imagine the shame and fury I felt for something that wasn't even my fault. Shit was on the news.
That might be the most tragic thing I've heard. Im guessing it was sulfuric acid? Also, what was that doing in a fridge?
@@peterjoel345 preventing it from boiling/offgassing. A lot of chemicals have boiling points near room temperature.
Not sure how much i believe they all died. Is there an article to reference this?
If its concentrated acid, it wouldve burned their tongue on contact, theyd stop drinking and seek treatment straight away. If its dilute, it would just taste like shit and they wouldnt ingest a large amount. If shes diluted the acid in a drink to mask the taste, and its at the level people can tolerate it, chances are its less acidic than stomach acid. The operating on the wrong side is sadly something that has happenned a few times. The surgical time-out prior to the start of operation where they verify the patient details and what is being performed has cut down on it.
That's some Fallout New Vegas level stuff, right there. The staff must've all been running low-intelligence builds on that poor old lady.
That’s BS, there’s no way someone will be able to drink enough acid to kill themselves as the moment it touched their mouth they would be in agony and spitting out the liquid!!!

Pre school teachers episode.
I used to be a pre school teacher and we had a book of things we didn't thing we would ever say. E.g.
"We do not poo in the classroom bin" as a kid squats over the bin with his pants down.
"We do not eat our friends" as one kid was peeling his skin off and feeding it to his buddy during circle time.
I reckon public transport stories would be an absolute banger. My best one is from when I was heading home from one of your gigs. I had decided to catch the train. As I got on, I saw a guy with a balaclava on and a big box covered in tape. Obviously, I thought that was odd and was trying to work out what his deal was. The dude then asks me "what are you looking at?" as if it's somehow normal to be wearing a balaclava on a train at 9pm. He then proceeded to punch the window constantly throughout the whole ride. I think that's when I noticed something was up. Luckily, his girlfriend was there to calm him down. That is, until we got close to Flinders St and he all of a sudden said to his girlfriend that he had A MACHETE on him and wanted to kill someone. She was very into the idea. Luckily, the train was stopping so I started to get off, but then they very quickly started getting off too, and were uncomfortably close. Managed to break away from them and report it to the police. Can't say it was the best train ride home.
Yeah, public transport stories would be hectic. I've seen people bring full on (definitely stolen) motorcycles onto the trains here.

My mum is a theatre nurse at a public hospital with an emergency department. She says multiple times a week guys come in and have accidentally “fallen” on objects. And then require surgery to remove them. Most recently was a guy who had “fallen” on a door stop.
My mom was a nurse, she got face kicked and/or punched multiple times a year. She got stabbed by dirty needles, had attempted sexual assaults, insulted in the worst ways, was vomited on many many times, shit on many many times, was forced on a regular basis to provide treatment to mothers high on crack/heroin/meth/ e.t.c currently giving birth, examine children for sexual abuse, and basically had to face the worst of humanity on a constant basis. She did this while being under payed and under appreciated by doctors who act as if their gods (not all doctors)
I had been stabbed in the wrist, I had two wait for 1 hour in the waiting room. Blood was dripping through the towel onto the floor, when I was finally taken into a room the doctor took 30 minutes to have a look. By the way the town I live in is small just 4000 people. I ended up getting stitches but the blood loss lead to me getting slight brain damage that caused me to get epilepsy.
My husband used to work in a call centre in the suburbs of Adelaide that was being used as an outsourced customer service line for several corrupt NSW local councils. He has some pretty good stories, maybe make a video on the people who answer the phone for the local council.

My sister was a nurse who was stationed in ED. My favourite story she shared was a house robber who jumped a fence and didn't realise they had a VERY loyal big dog. They were taken to the ER because as he slipped while trying to climb over the fence.
The fence in question? Those Fleur De Lis looking spiky things. The police, fire and ambulance were called because he was left dangling and couldn't get off the fence post sitting squarely in his rump.
She had to deal with the thief. But couldn't help it

I feel like nurses don't take women seriously. I had a fibroid the size of a 5 month pregnancy which is strange for a 22 year old. In casualty, I felt like I was in an interrogation as they were trying to get me to confess that I'm actually pregnant. Next they asked if I would be visiting casualty every time I got my period. I told them I would come as long as I had this insane pain because I literally couldn't walk or stand whenever I got my period.
My doctor did an open myomectomy to remove it, it's similar to a C-section. The day after, I couldn't move a single muscle and was still hooked up to a thousand tubes. The nurse refused to help me to bath or change my sheets which now had a pool of blood from the wound. I cried literal tears and begged my Mom to come and help me.
I'm so sorry about what you had to go through. Those nurses are absolutely horrible and you deserved way better care. I hope you were able to report those absolute idiots.
I reckon u should do a hospitality industry one would be very interesting seeing what I see everyday
Nothing like solid affirmation that nurses don't get paid NEARLY enough. Respect to all our nurses out there.
One story my grandma told me when she worked as a nurse back in the 60s, was that they had a doctor who treated the nurses like his personal maids.
Every night he expected them to cook him dinner which always had to be "Liver and Onions". All the nurses got sick of this and my Grandma happened to work in the maternity ward so that night when they were cooking him dinner, instead of cooking up the liver, they substituted it a placenta and he was none the wiser. In fact he said it was the best meal he ever had.
Moral of the story is don't fuck with nurses.
Did he ever find out what he ate?
A better moral is, don't fuck with someone's food. In most restaurants, this is considered crossing a line, no matter how bad the customer was.
@@Dumb_Killjoy He was none the wiser,
I work in my local hospital's pathology lab. Our Nurses are lovely, except when you call them to say they've messed up a blood or urine test and they'll have to do the test over again. Then you're suddenly the worst human being in the entire hospital and makes you feel responsible for the patient's misery; when THEY'RE the ones who fucked up the blood test.

I LOVE nurses, some of the best people and one of my closest friends is a nurse. I have dealt with difficult ones as security (though thankfully very rarely), as I used to do security for the local hospitals on problem patients (or those that just require supervision that the hospital couldn't provide due to staff shortages). The one that sticks out the most was a nurse who basically refused my request to have a patient who was overdue for his pain relief and give me attitude on this fact. This patient was known to get angry and violent when in pain (hence why they had security on them) and left them in pain for another hour after I made that request. He ended up walking to the other side of the hospital to find an exit and leave (He was old with dementia too so that would be bad) while I had to call for backup from the official hospital security and try coax him back to his ward/room. The whole walk I had to keep other staff and visitors at a distance until they arrived to help. I get they are overworked and have so much to do on a general basis but I feel the ball was dropped there and it could have been avoided if that patient had gotten their f*cking pain meds.
I used to work in fish and chip ships in Queensdland, Ive seen multiple times where cockroaches and other bugs have fallen into the fryers and burger mince, to be cooked and sent out. chicko rolls, dim sims and springrolls fall onto shop floors after being cooked and sent out as if nothing happened.
Used to have a coffee shop that was next door, got broken into by robbers, and they left a shit under the silver cap that holds the coffee. they discovered it the next day after making a few cups of coffee and wondered why it tasted feral.
Working in pharmacy for 6 years and being told how to do my job by nurse is a monthly experience.
I remember when i worked at maccas for 4yrs. I was cleaning the kitchen just after the lunch rush( it was nothing short of fucked) and as i moved a box, a big fuck off rat scurried away towards washroom, and when i told a manager he said" oh that's just danny, he's all good". Also an old man one time threw a bacon and egg at my co-worker because his coffee was taking too long.

My experience with bad nurses (which, thankfully, did not make me hate nurses, but did cause a paralyzing needle phobia) were the lab nurses at the clinic I went to as a kid. I had a pain tolerance of zero, and they'd hold my arm down and shout in my face to settle down and get over it, meanwhile wiggling the needle, unintentionally, in the process of trying to make me stol wailing. To this day, I have to be sedated with pills before you can get a needle in me, and I'm glad this works because I'm also mildly allergic to novocaine and similasr, so for serious dental work I have to be sedated with an IV. My aunt is a nurse, and she wishes she'd known about that back then and could have taken me there!
spent a lot of time in nursing homes as my grandmother was a resident of a few for many years until her passing of course.
there was this old lady in the same ward as my gran in one of these places that for some strange reason needed to be "manually evacuated" on many of my visits.
they really get in there with a host of tools. fucking long double gloves, scoops, hoses, chop sticks (to break it up), it's makita sponsored. and the smell, yeah that's burned into my mind.
edit: in case anyone asks, i usally saw this array of equipment before they shut the curtain and this lady was bed ridden. curtains don't block sound or smell btw.
I work in a hospital in one of the auxiliary departments. I have seen and heard some truely disgusting and messed up things in my brief time working there. I do recall once hearing from an Ed nurse, that a male patient had been admitted because his female partner had cut his penis off while they were having sex while being on some sort of hard drugs, she then proceeded to feed it to their dog. Once the guy had been seen they took him up to the surgical unit, apparently once he came down from his “high” he was enquiring about when and if his penis would grow back.
This one definitely needs to go in a second edition of this vid, holy hell
My ex wife was a nurse. She told me that with patients that they found difficult or didn't like they would write on the patients file FITH Syndrome, this acronym stood for F___ked In The Head Syndrome.
When I was just starting as a student, one of the nurse instructors told a story about how the doctor had asked one of his patients to bring in a stool sample for a fecal swab test. The patient, however, had lost the collection kit they had been given and improvised by bringing in a formerly empty glass mayo jar filled to the top with their poo. The doctor, after having been handed this jar, looked at it as my instructor had put it "thoughtfully" for a moment before stepping out of the room.
My instructor followed him and after a few seconds of awkward silence. The doctor let out a rushed, "Get to it" before shoving the poo jar into my instructors hands and disappearing down the hallway. The sample ultimately tested negative for whatever it was they were trying to find.
I suggest "confessions from funeral directors" from picking up cadavers frozen in awkward rigour mortis positions to unusual family requests.
I worked for a big w that was constantly assaulted by drug addict, lots of shop lifting. I was working on the checkouts when I saw what I would later find out was the most ambitious man alive, basicly this dude walked in and out of the store 3 times but each time he walked back in he had something new on him a bag the first time then a hat and then a different hat. I watched him walk in for the last time didn't think much of it just another random drugo until about 10 minutes later.

My aunt is a nurse and professor at a nursing school. One thing I hate about SOME nurses is that they think they know just as much as doctors, and occasionally give straight up dangerous advice.
esp the nurses who refuse to carry out doctors orders. i was prescribed a SPECIFIC pain//sleep management regime over night and the nurses flatly refused. i had almost NONE after being operated on and opened up from side to side. By morning i was so traumatised, the surgeon asked why i looked so shit - i told hhim, and he TOLD ME to make a formal complaint...and the hospital in question basuically beggged me not to sue, and promised to "re-educate" their overnight staff. Prob was these nurses were seasoned professionals who thought they were above any orders anyway, so it would not have worked. im terrified of surgery now, not coz of that, but because i never know how good or bad the nurses will be.

When I was a student nurse, we had a frequent flier brought in by ambulance. The nurse I was working with asked the ambos, "have you checked him for knives?". The ambos looked confused, said no, why?
She walked up to the patient, like "g'day John (not real name), where are your knives?"
He happily showed off his collection of knives, bragging about each one. Some were concealed as rings, credit cards, he had a massive hunting knife. There were 11 edged weapons in total. The ambos were horrified. We locked the knives away for the duration of his stay.
Not a dangerous guy, he's actually really nice. Just super into knives.
I work at that same hospital now and I always check old mate for weapons when he's admitted.
Im a nurse. Tbh its like any other job, some good ones and some bad ones. Just as one kind one can make your health journey wonderful, a horrible one can literally scar you.
Most nurses are generally really great people. The problem is that there are a lot of people that get into the medical field purely for the bag. I remember being in the ICU after being cut in half at the waist, asking for pain medicine, and my nurse at the time was irritated that I kept asking for it and decided to tell me "You need to realize that you're going to be in pain for the rest of your life." I think I'll leave it at that.
Lmao, just a casual "after being cut in half..."
Glad you're remembering now and not experiencing it anymore. May I ask how you even managed?
jesus what happened you
@@DeathClawz LOTS of pain medicine and physical therapy. I was able to go one of the best places you can go to for spinal cord injuries, and they helped a lot. Like I said, most nurses and doctors really are great people that want to help. If it wasn't for people like that, then I wouldn't be here today.
@@padraiglogue3568 Let just say that you need to be careful of more than just yourself if you work in a warehouse, and especially with equipment. Even if you are being safe, that doesn't mean that others are.
I know this is morbid and fucked up but can you still walk after being cut in half?
I feel like just nurse stories should be it's own series...
In the 1980s we were punk rockers living in a large warehouse squat in Sydney, one of the girls was a theater nurse, our favorite doctor she worked with at the hospital was a junkie and the stories were hilarious.
I used to work retail and I have lost track of the amount of times a customer has asked me a question about a product that had the answer to their question on its label.
My vision is worse than most people's and I require very strong glasses, but even on days that I'd forget them at home (my boyfriend usually drove my car for me anyway) I was still able to read most labels unassisted by simply holding the packaging closer to my face.
I didn't mind it at all when an elderly person or someone who struggled to understand English asked me (I knew just enough Spanish to help, and used Google Translate to fill in any blanks) but when a young person with no vision impairment speaking English fluently asked me a question about a product that already had the information they wanted on the label, it drove me up the freakin wall. Thankfully I've honed my "retail poker face" to near perfection.
Back when I worked at a Michael's [it's an arts and crafts retail chain in the US] in California in 2020, during peak season (October through December) I cannot tell you the amount of people I saved from hospitalization because they attempted to buy the decorative scented fake cinnamon sticks... to cook with.
The things had f*cking GLITTER on them and they still thought they were both real and food-grade. One woman walked right up to the register and started bragging about how she was going to use them to make moonshine, and in full Karen fashion, threw a tantrum when I informed her that they weren't actually safe to eat. Apparently the "non-edible" warning on the label wasn't good enough.
We tried putting up a sign, to no avail. After a while we had someone patrol that aisle just to tell customers that put the fake cinnamon sticks in their basket face-to-face that the cinnamon sticks were not real or safe to eat.
When I was on cinnamon stick duty a couple times, people would return the fake cinnamon sticks to their spot (or just chuck them onto the nearest shelf) about half the times that I informed them of the danger of attempting to eat or cook with them. If I remember correctly we ended up pulling them from the shelves in late November because it was getting too busy and we needed staff all around the store, not trapped in one aisle for the sole purpose of preventing Darwinism that could potentially get the company sued.
Moral of the story: even literate humans don't bother to read labels--safety labels or otherwise. If you hear a story that sounds really crazy that you want to doubt/deny as fake, of someone doing something incredibly dumb with a product that explicitly says not to do the dumb thing on the label, just remember there's like a 50/50 chance they never even bothered to look at the label.
Examples:
--The woman who used "Gorilla Glue" in her hair, mistaking it for a similar product (that actually was intended for hair) called Gorilla Snot
--Pretty much every victim of the Tide Pod challenge
--Anyone around at the time of the Birth of Microwaves who ignored the "do not try to cook metal" warning on the packaging
--The people in this very video who fed their child insecticides to kill the bugs he ate
--And many, many more.
No matter how much you try to idiot-proof something, someone, somewhere will find a way to hurt themselves with it.
A friend had an operation for colon cancer so wasn’t feeling to hot. A young nurse came in to give him a sponge bath followed by an older nurse who started abusing the younger one over her method which turned into a shouting match over the top of him whereupon he gathered the strength to tell them to take it outside! They later came and apologised and asked if he wanted to make a complaint. He didn’t but his wife ended up spending his remaining time in the hospital with him to avert any more upset!
As a safety professional, highly recommend to do one of these for us.
