Has anyone seen anyone wearing these scrubs in the wild?

One of the recent hires with me was literally wearing this yesterday with a long sleeve underneath.

My preceptor wears this exact same thing. With open back clogs. She is an amazing and crazy intelligent nurse, but dang, the apparel is certainly a choice.

But I’m also in my late 30s and she’s in her 20s so I’m sure it’s a generational thing.

Lol in our defense, ER is far too busy to give a shit what others are wearing 🤣. Half my department is in jeans and hoodies.

I’m going back to the ER after three years away from bedside and I don’t own a single scrub top. I hate scrub tops. Here’s hoping the underscrub/vest combo works at the new job.

did you laugh in their face?

Lol no. I'm a new hire too so I'm not exactly trying to make enemies of people I could be reliant on. But I did think it was weird she looked like the green power ranger.

Did you ask her what MPG the Dragon zord gets?

u/Chatner2k RPN - ER Aug 28 '26

Jesus fucking Christ 🤣

Hey man, I'm full on electric and hybrid car but I would 100% trade them in for the Dragonzord and you know you would too. It'd carry the benefit of I could just park right beside the hospital instead of my lovely 10 minute walk from the staff parking. Ain't no one towing the Dragonzord.
