I am a nurse in a labor and delivery unit. One day we got a women in via ambulance. She had been in court for her arraignment when her water broke. After spending several minutes trying to (unsuccessfully) find a fetal heart rate, I had a doctor come in to do an ultrasound. She wasn't pregnant. She just peed her pants to get out of court.

At my server job we had to pick up all the candles at the end of the night from wedding receptions. One night a drunk guy called me a "crazy bitch" because I wouldn't let him blow them all out like birthday candles. Pretty sure he would have breathed fire he was so intoxicated.

At work I have found a bag of cocaine, a vial of crack, two hatchets, several mangled coat hangers in back alleys, warped spoons with white powder residue on them, more used condoms and needles then I care to know including a box of roughly twenty used needles, and I have seen a day hooker shoot up with heroine on a sidewalk, and all I do at my job is cut the grass on peoples lawns.

So I worked as a CNA in Highschool and College to make extra money.  While I was doing my Practical in a Nursing home the lady I was taking care rang me to help her go to the bathroom.  I helped her on the toilet and then told her to ring me again when she needed help to get up.  She rang and I went to help she stood up and said "O shit" fell back on the toilet and died there.  Needless to say work was interesting.
