Besides. There are other aspects to manininity that need to be considered.

To this - I don't yell and the varied reasons for people coming to the ER are as abundant as the strands of seaweed on the beach after a storm - ie - not everyone comes to the ER for behavioral reasons. That said, I'm an RN, not a therapist. And despite the visceral reaction some people have to my outward appearance, when push comes to shove, my patients usually tell me they feel safe when I'm on - that they know I'll care for them and keep them safe. And for me, that's all i really need for a peer review.
Oh, and Solumina - you're right. Teddy bear.
