Ricky Gervais monologue at Golden Globes. "You're in no position to lecture the public about anything. You know nothing about the real world."

Quite the interesting post.

How does she determine which ones get fired? Is there a table so that nurses know that subject/verb disagreement earns more of a penalty than say, a pitiful little dangling participle?

I mean your sister sounds very sharp, so surely these firings due to grammar have some data behind them, right? Otherwise, she is just issuing out punishment like an uneducated fool.

What if their grammar skills may be lacking, but they're some of the best in their departments? Will they still be reprimanded or unemployed?

Will patients have the option to administer grammatical testing for these nurses, prior to receiving treatment from them?

Who cares about their abilities and experience, the important lesson here is that they can read and write efficiently.

Sorry. I'm currently out of blue font at the moment.

I just wonder if sis is aware that her brother is on the world wide web making her out to be a buffoon.

The nurse saved many lives; always went above and beyond but one day said "I seen it". Terminated immediately.

Committed the ultimate grammar sin, huh?

I wonder which part of the country we are firing these nurses from ... How are Y’ALL doin today ( south ) , Can I go WITH TO ( mid west) , That’s HELLA funny ( west coast) , YOU BETCHA ( upper northern) . I’d love to know .

 

[joevol33]

If I knew some got so offended at grammar I'd post here twice as much. Between tge ky in me, and my phone, I could have some fun

I seent it

Also...its sad to sit back and watch someone make a fool of themself when everyone else knows that they are lying....especially when that lie was told in order to be a dbag to the only lady that posts here.. a lady who in my recollection never insults or fusses with anyone here....

" I'll take 'How to make a fool of myself, and make everyone hate me' for $500 Alex."

Brilliant.

Ty Marcus, tbh I have insulted people. I answer them at the same level they address me.

I aren't gonna lie, I done this at least umpteen dozen times.


Somewhere some guys sister's gramdar is going off like when anyone in my house touches the thermostat

That's exactly that they do at hospitals like Vanderbilt, St. Thomas and Centennial. Getting rid of nurses for not shoring up their grammar doesn't make a charge a nurse a horrible one. It makes her a damn good one for demanding excellence

You misspelled "what" with "that". Also, you left out your period to end your sentence, you illiterate twat.

You missed where he said "charge a nurse."

 

[volsarelife1]

Dang, he completely screwed that reply up. He would for sure be fired for that awful grammar.

My sister is a 40 year charge nurse/manager in ICU and CCU. She saves peoples lives and uses correct grammar. In fact, she gets rid of nurses who don't use correct grammar.

Sounds like discrimination. She must not be a good person.

 

[volbeast33]

You ain't in the medical business, hombre.

I am and what you are saying is absolutely not true.

You are crazy if you believe this. I’ve trained nurses and physicians at Vandy, Emory, and other hospitals all over the country and I assure you they don’t get rid of nurses for meaningless things like this. Hell they don’t even get rid of doctors addicted to drugs until they have to

 

[SpaceCoastVol]

Nurses are expected to speak and write correctly, It's part of their job.

You're fos is your expect anyone to believe she fires people for improper grammar.

You don’t know that. Maybe I’m a phlebotomist.

It is IMPERATIVE that my phlebotomist speak well when (s)he puts that harpoon in my arm. I won't stand for less.
