A Slice of Drama: When Pizza Replaces Christmas Dinner
Our ‘Pizza Nurse’ had a Christmas she won’t forget anytime soon. After working non-stop, she came home on Christmas day to find her in-laws waiting for a festive feast.

“NTA!! Fellow nurse here. You are awesome and do not ever let others make you feel bad over being one. It’s not your job that needs changed it’s their attitude. It took my ex MIL years to understand that I worked nightshift and sleeping until afternoon wasn’t ‘sleeping in’ it was my sleep time. Please do yourself a favor and get away from this guy.”
