"Are you TRYING to test the limits of your surgery?" (Grrrrr!)

Putting aside the large snort I just let out in my office.....

I'm an HR exec.  I can promise you that if this story made it's way to me professionally, it wouldn't be you in my office - it would be the idiot coworker.

I always say, people are stupid, therefore I will always have a job.  Sigh.

You did far better than I would.

You handled her well.  If they reprimand you for this, she should be reprimanded for the way she got in your business.

I like the way you handled Nosey Nancy.  I would have had a few choice words included in that type of conversation. 

I applaud you for not taking her down a peg or two. That she would even address you this way has already breeched common etiquette, and certainly medical staff relationships.

That was priceless and freaking awesome!!!! I must  to you.  You set that heifer straight!!!

You made my day.

Thanks.

That is hilarious! Good for you. Sounds like SHE is the one who stepped over the line.

 So glad you set her straight. She needs to mind her own business.

I really can't believe that she even had the nerve to say anything! Wow, just wow. You handled it very well Dr. Steve!

too funny!  Way to put her in her place!

Ya know thinking about this more ... Steve, I think a nice mexican dinner with beans and rice and maybe something good and carby for desert - and make sure you let a ripe DS'er fart near her the next day.
