Family of a guy who was honestly a lot this week brought a Costco sheet cake to the nurses station before discharge. In blue frosting it said SORRY ABOUT OUR DAD THANK YOU.
He threw a urinal at day shift on Tuesday. The cake was delicious. I think we're even. What's the best apology gift a family has ever left your unit?

Post replyDay shift took the urinal and night shift got the cake. Tale as old as time.
I love a Costco cake as much as anyone, but I hope someone actually wrote up the urinal incident. We joke about it because it's that or cry, and that's exactly how admin gets away with calling it part of the job.
Had a daughter bring pizza for days AND nights after her mom bit one of our techs. She also brought a separate box just for the tech, with a handwritten card. Best apology I've ever seen, and the tech still talks about it.
Was the urinal full or empty? Because that changes the cake-to-incident ratio significantly.
