interesting fact

Since i have become a nursing student (and being a closet smoker) i've repeatedly been asked this question.

Why do so many doctors and nurses smoke?

Well how the f@*& should I know, it's not as though i started smoking the moment i entered the program. But let me as those out there this question, what would you rather have. A medical professional who has felt the need to take a little jaunt outside, even in the dead of winter to light up a cancer stick so that they could get a break from runnning around for 20 hours straight. OR one that has decided it F*&% it and has gone out for a drink. I don't know about you but i rather have the doc/nurse that smells like tar than the one that can't hold whatever insturment of torture that is currently going to go up your ass, arm or into your mouth.
