Nurse's Midnight Mishap

Anonymous Smug Wildcard #285 · General

I was working a late shift last night at the hospital when I made this embarrassing mistake. I had to use the restroom urgently but ran into an emergency patient arriving, so I quickly hid in a supply closet instead of leaving my post. Big mistake! Suddenly, there was a noise, and before I could react, another nurse came rushing in with a tray of supplies for the new patient. She must have thought I was playing hide-and-seek or something! To make matters worse, her name tag read 'Mary,' which is also my mom's name. It felt like such an odd déjà vu moment that she couldn't help but laugh at me. So here's my question: Has anyone ever had a similar embarrassing moment while on duty? Share your stories in the comments!
