  • hahahahahaha very funny.........ummm nooooo I am not going to hit people with shovels before they speak because doing that doesn't solve anything. Ironically, for every patient I have taken care of with bowel problems, I have dealt with a patient who has a broken arm. Yet, I am seldomly informed about the broken arm and I am always informed with too much info about someone's bowel problems or gas issues. So explain that....... Plus, it is not just patients who tell me every nasty detail about their g.i. issues, it is also friends and relatives who just assume that because I am a shit cleaner upper that I want to hear about their foul smelling diahrrea. Oh and by the way, once a patient knows that I am the nursing assistant they treat me like some incompetent person even though I have been nothing but nice to them. It is not like I can assess their bowel issues because in their eyes I am a stupid person. Basically what they are telling me is they don't respect me enough to spare me of the horrible details about thier incontinence but yet I am supposed to listen to them because I am worthless, that is in the patient's eyes. It is not fair or right. They never talk about that stuff to the nurses, because nurses are too good for horror stories. Don't make me out to be the villain when all I want is a little respect.

      • Actually, I am much happier with my current job, I recently made a career change, but I will NEVER become an RN because unlike most nurses, I don't have cold ice running through my veins as far as your poop smelling like eggs & sulfa, IT'S POOP!!! What do u expect?????
