An elderly man was sick and in the hospital. <\/a>There was this one nurse who drove him crazy because every time she came in, she would talk to him like he was a little child.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She would say in a patronizing voice, \u201cAnd how are we doing this morning?\u201d or \u201cAre we ready for a bath?\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The man had just had enough! So, one morning at breakfast, he took the apple juice off the tray and put it on his bedside stand. Later that morning, he was given a urine bottle to fill for testing. So, you know where the apple juice went! The same nurse came in a little later, picked up the urine bottle and looked at it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMy,\u201d she said, \u201cit seems we are a little cloudy today!\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

At this, the old man snatched the bottle out of her hand, popped off the top and drank it down, saying, \u201cWell, I\u2019ll run it through again! Maybe I can filter it better this time. What do you think?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The nurse fainted!<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A motorcycle patrolman was rushed to the hospital with an inflamed appendix.
The doctors operated and advised him that all was well. However, the patrolman kept feeling something pulling at the hairs on his chest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Worried that it might be a second surgery the doctors hadn\u2019t told him about, he finally got enough energy to pull his hospital gown down enough so he could look at what was making him so uncomfortable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Taped very firmly across his hairy chest were three wide strips of adhesive tape, the kind that doesn\u2019t come off easily. Written in large black letters was the sentence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGet well quick\u2026.. from the nurse you gave a ticket to last week.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I was sitting in the waiting room of the hospital after my wife had gone into labor.
The nurse walked out and said to the man sitting next to me, \u201cCongratulations sir, you\u2019re the new father of twins!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The man replied, \u201cHow about that, I work for the Doublemint Chewing Gum Company.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The man then followed the woman to his wife\u2019s room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

About an hour later, the same nurse entered the waiting room and announced that Mr. Smith\u2019s wife has just had triplets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mr. Smith stood up and said, \u201cWell, how do ya like that, I work for the 3M Company.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The gentleman that was sitting next to me then got up and started to leave.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I asked him why he was leaving, he remarked, \u201cI think I need a breath of fresh air.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The man continued, \u201cI work for 7-UP.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
