too cute not to share

I may be way behind in my youtube video watching but this was too cute not to share. Thanks to a co-worker for pointing it out to me!

Enjoy!

Anyone up for making our own hospital version?!?

Do's and Don'ts

A few things I have learned in just a month working in the ER....

Do come in to the ER right away when you lose vision in your eye and have a headache.
Don't wait and then drive yourself in.

Do tell the truth.
Don't lie. I have records and ways of finding out.

Do come to the ER for emergencies.
Don't come in the ER because you stubbed your toe 14 hours ago and it hurts. Then tell me you can't really walk because of the pain but in the next sentence tell me you walked to the ER cause it is only 5 blocks away.

Do try Tylenol and Motrin for your pain and fever at home.
Don't overdose on Tylenol or Motrin.

Do try to call your own doctor first.
Don't think that if you have had this pain for years I will be able to cure.

Do be courteous to ALL staff
Don't talk on your cell phone or txt when I am trying to help you. You came here for help. Its an EMERGENCY remember.

Imagine

Can you imagine innocently wanting to start some laundry one lazy afternoon and stepping in to a puddle at the bottom of your stairs? Brand new carpet mind you! Can you imagine the panic....crawling around on all fours to find the source. Drip Drip Drip there it was ..... the water heater ...

I would like to thank Mr T and my brother for coming over to help control the situation. If only it ended there.

Imagine a week....5 whole days.... with out hot or even warm water!

I would like to thank Kellie, Jeremy & Liam for letting me interupt their family routine and letting me shower daily!

I am the proud owner of a brand new water heater and all the upgrades required to fix it!

I will try never to take hot water for granted again. Neither should you.

The End.
