I looked over at the charge nurse and said, "It's really quiet in here tonight."
When the pediatric resident sauntered in to talk to the nurse practitioner about a baby who needed to be transferred from the well-baby nursery I looked at the clock.
"Almost exactly 20 minutes, wasn't it?" was her response.
She let me take the admission.

In ob they always say "Never comment about the board." I guess this applies in the nicu too!

And I'm sure if you did a study you'd find selective memory. I know I've said the "Q" word many times to no effect.
LOL...famous last words in the NICU. One of our RNs said the "Q" word a few weekends ago and within the hour we had two kiddos going down the tubes that were previously doing fair.
It has all but been abolished as a phrase in our NICU ;)
