On her first day of work, a Nigerian nurse was asked by her chief nursing officer to iron her scrubs.
The lady announced on the micro-blogging platform Twitter that she had just started at her new ward. When a nurse entered, they exchanged pleasantries.
The nurse identified herself as the Chief Nursing Officer, or CNO, and told her she needed to iron her scrubs. The CNO noted her perplexed expression and inquired as to why she was perplexed. She said that as a rookie nurse, she had to do even worse things.
She described how difficult the ordeal was for her, yet she was forced to iron the scrubs.
She wrote:
“Today I was posted to a new ward. I came in, changed my clothes and sat down. A nurse came in and I greeted her. The next thing she told me “come and iron my scrubs” I was confused and she really asked me why I was shocked. Why should I iron your scrubs?Nah Nigeria is crazy.
And she was like I am the CNO. And so fucking what? Is it not the same license we have? Where was it written in my resumption letter that I am here to iron a CNO scrubs?
It’s paining me that I ironed because I didn’t just want to cause wahala this new week.
She really opened that her mouth to tell me that”why are you confused?, if you see the things as I need when I was a new nurse”. And in my mind I am like, how is that my business? People really need to do better Fr. The first time you are seeing me and you are telling me to iron.
I did it and the thing is painingggg me. She even told me to re iron that I didn’t iron it well. That’s the one that made me explode bruhhh.”
