Hello all !

Yeah but I knew that before I googled it lol.

You big tease.

I still don't know what an RN is.

You are online.  How hard is it to do a search?

"RN" is "Registered Nurse."  It is a type of nurse.

I just meant I don't know how it was deciphered here

Start with an online search.  Most of the time, that will give you the answer.  When it does not, then ask.

Is it just my impression, or do (esp. male) nurses somehow always feel the absurd need to explain and justify themselves for having chosen this profession? It is particularly bad in the anglophone world it seems. I call it Gaylord Focker effect.

Okay, just how drunk are you?  Shouldn't you remain sober so you can change your daughter's diapers?

Women, at least traditionally, have had absolutely no need to justify being nurses.  At least not in this anglophone country, and I have never gotten the impression that they need to justify it anywhere else.  So your "esp. male" comment is off the mark.  For men, the question is (or was in the past), why did you not become a doctor?  Of course, anyone who is not a fool knows that the money it takes to become a doctor is much greater than the money it takes to become a nurse.

So, is it wine?  Scotch?  Or have you decided not to abandon your German heritage and have made it beer?  (Damn, you can get great beer in Germany, why are you not drinking more of it?  I was very impressed with the local beers I had in the small towns I visited.  You must be some sort of traitor to your country, you beer neglecting swine!  Germany is wasted on you!  I should be there!)

Holy Jesus Cakes! Someone forgot to take his anti-mr.grumpypants pills today.
