Did you become a nurse in order to travel?

I am always interested to find out why one pursues a career in nursing. I for one love interacting with the people and ultimately making them better. But being a travel nurse is a great way to get to see our country and wonder how many people became a nurse in order to travel. Believe me I don’t blame you I would be doing it if I wasn’t ready to settle down and start a family…

Travel Nurse Humor

Limo Driver

After getting all of Pope Benedict’s luggage loaded into the limo (and he doesn’t travel light),
the driver noticed that the Pope was still standing on the curb.

“Excuse me, Your Eminence,” said the driver, “would you please take your seat so we can
leave?”

“Well, to tell you the truth,” said the Pope, “they never let me drive at the Vatican, and I’d really
like to drive today.”

“I’m sorry, but I cannot let you do that. I’d lose my job! And what if something should happen?”
protested the driver, wishing he’d never gone to work that morning.

“There might be something extra in it for you,” said the Pope.

Reluctantly, the driver got in the back as the Pope climbed in behind the wheel. The driver
quickly regretted his decision when, after exiting the airport, the Supreme Pontiff floored it,
accelerating the limo to 105 mph.

“Please slow down, Your Holiness!!!” pleaded the worried driver, but the Pope kept the pedal to
the metal until they heard sirens.

“Oh no, I’m gonna lose my license,” moaned the driver.

The Pope pulled over and rolled down the window as the cop approached, but the cop took
one look at him, went back to his motorcycle, and got on the radio.

“I need to talk to the Chief,” he said to the dispatcher. The Chief got on the radio and the cop
told him that he’d stopped a limo going a hundred and five.

“So bust him,” said the Chief.

“I don’t think we want to do that; he’s really important,” said the cop.

Then the Chief exclaimed, “All the more reason!”

“No, I mean really important,” said the cop.

The Chief then asked, “Who ya got there, the mayor?”

Cop: “Bigger.”

Chief: “Governor?”

Cop: “Bigger.”

“Well,” said the Chief, “who is it?”

Cop: “I think it’s God!”

Chief: “What makes you think it’s God?”

Cop: “He’s got the Pope for a limo driver!”
