How do you know if they are "clean" or not?
What about a mom that changed her child's diaper before leaving for the restaurant. You saying she should change as well?

looks like the type of place one would go to unwind after a long day at work....
again, what makes them dirty?

Saw a guy at DFW going through TSA in scrubs with a stethoscope around his neck and his hospital IDs still clipped to his top. We get it, you are a Doctor.

That brings to mind the look of an "infomercial doctor." The ones in workout/diet plan/weight loss pill/juicer ads, wearing a doctor costume but never actually saying they are a doctor.

I'd like to hear more about the bar scene at 8 am where you live

If they couldn't wear their scrubs then they would have to tell everyone they are a doctor, ain't nobody got time for that.

So I'm now supposed to change if I go down to the cafeteria for food at work?

Maybe they could just wear a doctor hat or something!

It was this awesome hole in the wall sports bar. Opened at 6 am every day and served cheap but good breakfast and alcohol. Popular with shift workers and old retired men who wanted to sit and drink coffee (or beer or both)and shoot the shite with other old men up that early at a sports bar.
It's still open but the people I work with now mostly all have kids and can't go drinking after work.
But yeah....always a ton of nurses there every day.

How do you know where they work? I know some people who work in the medical billing field that wear scrubs and they have no contact with patients.
This. The entire office staff at my dentist, optometrist, and most of my doctors' offices wear scrubs, whether they're nurses or receptionists. I've even seen daycare workers wearing scrubs. As long as there aren't stains on them, it doesn't bother me.
Now as to your friend that you know had just come from work at a hospital, maybe he changed into clean ones right before he left, and that's all he had in his locker.

It's funny that this bothers people. Yes, if there is blood or other fluids on their scrubs, they should change. Otherwise, get over it.
Those that think they are too lazy or trying to brag? Give me a break. My husband will pretty much only wear scrubs out if he's on call. You think he wants to be on call? No. Trust me, he's miserable.

This thread is beyond fricking stupid.
Most of the people wearing scrubs for a work uniform hardly ever come into contact with body fluids or anything infectious. And the ones who do, who work at large hospitals with OR's and critical care units have vending machines to replace their dirty scrubs anytime they feel like it. So you have no idea if they are "dirty" or not.
What does it matter if the 20 something girl at the front desk who verifies your insurance wears her scrubs out to eat? She's not "dirtier" than your typical secretary, and is much "cleaner" than any blue collar worker.
Physician lab coats are a completely different story. They are generally disgusting.

I typically change into the hospital's scrubs I'm working at that day, and take them off before I leave.
But I show up in my own clean scrubs and leave in my own clean scrubs.
Also, surgeons, scrub techs, surgical nurses, etc, all wear sterile gowns that cover basically their entire body. There's absolutely nothing unclean about their clothes underneath.

That's awesome.
I guess night shift workers are good at finding little places like that.
glassman is all over this joint, should he ever move out there.
