That ain't from a jelly donut...

I'm sure I've said it before but I hate when doctors or nurses or anyone remotely involved in medicine who has to wear scrubs wears them out on the street. It defeats the whole purpose of scrubs and you see it all the time. I just don't get it...

"Scrubs are the shirts and trousers or gowns worn by surgeons, nurses, and other operating room personnel when "scrubbing in" for surgery. The wearing of scrubs has been extended outside of surgery in many hospitals. Scrubs are now worn by any hospital personnel in any clean environment. The spread of Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus has increased the necessity and usage of scrubs."

Basically scrubs aren't meant to be worn from your house to work or from work home. You're not supposed to spend the morning working in the hospital in your scrubs then go get lunch still in your fucking scrubs!

The point of "scrubs" is that they are supposed to be worn and contained inside a sterile environment such as a doctors office or a hospital so that no outside germs or whathaveyou can be brought into said sterile environment!

Some people actually CHOOSE to wear scrubs as a low maintenance fashion choice but those people are too far gone to be helped and therefore this rant isn't for them but for doctors and nurses and so on.

If you're on the street, wear your goddamn street clothes! Don't wear your scrubs during your commute to and, certainly not, fro and don't wear your scrubs to go get lunch! Scrubs are to be worn inside the medical environment for once you leave that environment they are contaminated. Get it? Obviously not, you don't get it, none of you do.

So I was at a Dunkin Donuts last night thats a block away from a hospital. In comes 3 clowns from said nearby hospital in their scrubs. Whatever. I see it all the time. But, one genius took it a step further. He upped the ante; pushed the envelope a bit further.

Not only was he in his scrubs but his sneakers and the ankles of his mint green scrubs were COVERED IN BLOOD... SPLASHED BLOOD... STILL COAGULATING BLOOD. It was fucking APPALLING!

I came so close to saying something but I was just frozen; I couldn't believe my eyes. This dude is on line leisurely ordering a french vanilla coffee and a fucking corn muffin meanwhile someones plasma is splashed all over his stupid New Balance sneakers!!!!

I'm going to file a complaint with the Dept of Health and see where that gets me. Fucking unreal. Filthy and vile. Horrible.
