unbearable

Stew and sour cream 

Good food prep at work. 

Strange feeling. 

Cat licks. 

The ego. 

It sits in the corner and pouts. 

I love my high polyphenol olive oil. 

You can really taste the difference. 

It’s funny. 

I know instinctively 

That people pick fights before 

Birthdays and holidays 

So they don’t have to give a present. 

Especially obvious when 

Someone picks a fight out of thin air. 

OK, buddy- you win! 

Work. 

The 3 other nurses on the case

All know each other. 

They are all from Nigeria. 

They clock out late 

To make me clock in late. 

On purpose. 

Last night, one of them told me

I was killing the patient 

By giving him oxygen. 

His respirations were over 40. 

He has an order for oxygen. 

With parameters. 

So I gave it. 

They’re bullying me. 

Again. 

To get me to resign.

It won’t work.
