[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not totally silly PP.  I work at a level one trauma center and we had a coworker make a light joke once along the same lines as what OP said and got reprimanded for it.

When you've actually had people admitted due to something major like a bomb, a lot of people don't find joking about it funny.

[b]OP, you sound really young and perhaps a bit immature. [/b] My best advice is everyone screws up sometime at their job.  And if someone says they haven't, they are lying.  I second PP's comment about how you now know people can overhear you and misunderstand what you said, so think twice before saying something that you think might be a joke.  Go in tomorrow and work hard.  Don't act like you just got reprimanded as it can come across badly.  Just do your job well, don't make any more "jokes" and it will be forgotten.  Act like you are tiptoeing around and afraid/embarrassed of people and you'll leave a bad taste in some people's mouths.  The ER is an insane place to work and you need to be able to shake things off and get back to the job at hand.  Good luck!!  [/quote]

:roll:

PP here has never had a foot-in-mouth moment because it's soooo immature. [/quote]
