Tom:
If I can't state my desired title with you, who else will let me be CMMICFH? Nurses, in the public eye, are little more than hand-maidens to physicians. We aren't seen as the intelligent, analytical, death-cheaters we are.
So, for all the forms that ask, "Title" I came up with this answer; in addition to Amazonian Goddess, Master of All Things Trivial and Dilletante Extrordinaire. DE is still my fave...used to have it on business cards, but no one got it.
So Tom, I plead, until nursing gets the respect it deserves and everyone sees us as vital members of the health care team, let me pick my title. My life has so little joy.
...oh, and I was mental waaaay before I met Victor, Bill, Rick, Jimmy, Timmy ...which is why we get along I suppose.
...or maybe THAT is why my life has so little joy? hmmmm...
