Maybe they just turned to scrubs because of all the perverts that would come in just to have the nurse take their temperature.:dunno:
Actually it's because it's easier to clean the piss, poop, blood, vomit, guts and other assorted nastiness that they encounter on a daily basis at their "job".
Mike Rowe from "Dirty Jobs" has no fucking clue, I tell ya...
Scrubs are lightweight, comfortable/loose fitting, have pockets to hold Kelly clamps and Carpujects and 10,000 pens... yet sturdy/durable and withstand repeated washes utilizing bleach and hot water (need to kill all them resistant bugs, no?)
As for me? I like the scrub stuff - truth be told, once I find a woman "hot" ... she's gonna stay hot even if she's dressed like a Mennonite.
cheers,
