got this in email - just wanted to share
NEVER TICK OFF A NURSE
A big shot business man had to spend a couple of days in the
hospital. He was a royal pain to the nurses because he bossed
them around just like he did his employees. None of the
hospital staff wanted to have anything to do with him.
The head nurse was the only one who could stand up to him.
She came into his room and announced, "I have to take your
temperature."
After complaining for several minutes, he finally settled down
crossed his arms and opened his mouth.
"No, I'm sorry, the nurse stated, "but for this reading, I can't
use an oral thermometer. This started another round of
complaining, but eventually he rolled over and bared his behind.
After feeling the nurse insert the thermometer, he heard her
announce, "I have to get something. Now you stay JUST LIKE
THAT until I get back!"
She leaves the door to his room open on her way out. He curses
under his breath as he hears people walking past his door,
laughing.
After a half hour, the man's doctor comes into the room.
"What's going on here?" asked the doctor.
Angrily, the man answers, "What's the matter, Doc? Haven't
you ever seen someone having their temperature taken?"
After a pause, the doctor confesses, "Not with a carnation."
