I was looking at Hyperions alternative names for airlines and I started thinking about those little 'in' jokes that we all have at work.

I thought it might be a bit of a giggle if we shared them.

As most of you know I'm a nurse, and we are referred to as the "caring" profession.  We are given lectures during our training about care, and caring.  On registration however your main philosohy of care boils down to:

Cover
Arse
Retain
Employment

....

I suppose you have to be there......

Hi No....(Oh. I can't be arsed with the rest of it...)...LOL...!

In the olden days we just went to work and did our different jobs...no problemo...!
Now...
You have to go to ENDLESS meetings to discuss exactly what your job entails, like wether you, or some-one else, has the responsibility of wiping the patients arse... Shocked...!
..Aren't I flippin' glad I retired before all this complicated, mumbo-jumbo came into existance.... Grin

Never mind Will... Wink...
It can only get worse... Cry...!
..you might have to read them stories to send them off to sleep... Roll Eyes...!
LOL...LOL...LOL...!

Cheers Mate... Grin...!

I worked for a HYSTER forklift dealership years ago mainly in the new equipment section which meant adding things at the customers request,predelivery and painting. After painting the Decals were applied in their various places.
One salesman who was generally a nice bloke would get a bit snarly if he thought the Decals were out of place. In fact we resorted to measuring each position so every one was exactly where it should be-and he still got snarly. In the end we referred to him as  Dr Decal and Mr Hyster!

The only problem with "in-jokes" is that most wont understand them, but who cares, thats why they are "in-jokes"
I work in a nursing on an Alzhiemer unit. We have a few residents that are fantasic artist. They make some of the best finger paintings I have ever seen. Usualy covers them, the bed, the wall, and the floor.
When you ask a resident what the food taste like and they say like sh?t, some of them have a bases for comparison

would these be "in-jokes" or just yucky Grin

My mum was a nurse, I know hundreds of stories that would probably make most people hurl. Mind you (going off topic for a minute) I was raised with this, and loved watching footage of surgery on video and stuff, the real thing, not some cheap ER nonsense, and if we had a really nice pudding, to make sure I got extra I'd start asking my mum about the details of the really horrible yukky bits, my dad would go white and leave the room! More pudding for me Grin
I think I was what is known as a horrible child? Grin Grin Grin
