Gallows Humor at Its Best

[kyburg]

I dunno. You tell me.

Is this a GOOD scrub top for a rad tech or not?



I kinda think it's cute.

I'd say that or a similar one with the radiation hazard tri-foil instead of skulls.

For the ladies -

That is hilarious in the "I could never wear this to work" kind of way.

A surgeon, I might worry about.

Along with a pirate hat, it's foolproof. Without? ...I can see how some folks might object, but this patient would squeal and compliment the heck out of it.

[kyburg.livejournal.com]

Dude. It has a matching hat:



Can you imagine Jim in that?

"ARRRRR, lad, I be your PIRRRRATE scanning technician today! We're going to see your SKULL AND BONES, yarr."

I can think of a few physical therapists terrorists who would appreciate them, too....

These are AWESOME.

I think it's hilarious, and I would love you for it as a patient. Unfortunately, I think most patients would be horrified.

Were you not in radiation, their horror might be really funny. :-p

You know, this might be geographic in nature. Wonder which part of their market share this was intended for, anyway?

Cute, but not appropriate for work. I'd probably burst into tears if I saw a hospital worker in this when I had to go in.

You know, I promise you wouldn't if it was Jim wearing it. Promise. It's just not possible.

That said, he wears Hawaiian scrubs just about every day, ala Hawkeye Pierce. I'm still considering the Pokemon one.

I would love that as a patient. But I've been told I'm weird.

[kyburg.livejournal.com]

We can be weird together!

I'd so wear that to get x-rayed. Or CAT-scanned. Or anything medically-related.

With the hat.

[pixievixen.livejournal.com]

i totally dig it. esp for rad.

[amilyn.livejournal.com]

Totally lovely!

For radiation? Sure. Also anything to do with osteo.
It would probably make me crack up.
However, I can see some of the older folks kinda not appreciating.

I'm wondering - gallows humor is like that. You think it would die on arrival...then they bust up laughing. When you least expect it.

[lostboydv.livejournal.com]

It would entertain some and horrify others.

[kyburg.livejournal.com]

I think it would surprise more than horrify...but gallows humor is like that. VERY individual in reaction.

[forestcats.livejournal.com]

Depends on if working with terminal patients or those battling cancer.

I should run this by Sis and see what she says. I suspect it would be VERY individual in reaction...gallows humor is like that.
