But seriously, do you really think it is a good idea to feed turkey
with mashed potatoes & gravy to the night shift?

To know that even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded. - Ralph Waldo Emerson
You know you're an RCP when
- "clubbing" no longer refers to the hitting up of the bar scene downtown
- you call someone "SOB" and are NOT calling them a son of a bitch
- you look at bigger people with no necks and think "man, they'd be a difficult intubation"
- SpO2, MDI, SOBOE, DPI, COPD, IPPB, FiO2 and R/A all mean something to you
- you DON'T encourage people to use cough medicines
- you measure the amount someone smokes in pack years
- you can hear the phrase "pulmonary toilet" and not laugh
- you know the alveolar air equation backwards and forwards, in your sleep
- you know that the "breathing tube" doesn't actually go down the "throat" per se
- "pink and frothy" no longer describes that strawberry shake you had for lunch
- "blue bloater/pink puffer" means something to you
- you realize people really have no clue how to use an Aerochamber
- you get paged to use a "vibrator" while at work, and it's perfectly acceptable and even requested by staff and patients - you can measure someone's RR just by walking by the patient
- you've been shot by an uncovered trach - you know there's an "H", a "G" and no "F" in phlegm
- you call it a "ventilator", not a "respirator"
- you measure things by color, consistancy and smell
- you know "BiPAP" doesn't involve a smear
- A/C no longer stands for "air-conditioning"
- you take the best damn care of any patient
- you call someone "SOB" and are NOT calling them a son of a bitch
- you look at bigger people with no necks and think "man, they'd be a difficult intubation"

I agree, bad idea.
They do this for us every year-- except it's like tukey, a loaded baked potato, green beans, cobbler, ice cream, a salad, and a drink.
I can hardly make it though the shift after all that. lol
LOL! That's hilarious! No kidding. We have to chase the holiday meals with Rockstar to make it through the night!
