But I haven't gotten the message that my post was sent yet, and frequently my posts don't show up and I think thats because I got the captchas wrong and they were never actually sent. But I've even tried listening to the captcha and can't tell what the F they said, it seems to say multiple things at once. Maybe I'm a robot and don't know it??<br /><br />The skulls look normal to me. <br /><br />People that aren't Drs still wear scrubs. Back in 2005 I worked at a hospital in the kitchen and was required to wear scrubs to work. Everyone had to wear scrubs, even the janitors. The colors of the scrubs dictated what your position was. Kitchen staff wore dark navy scrubs, Janitors wore these brown/tan looking scrubs. <br /><br />I love scrubs! I still have my scrub pants from that job and wear them as pajamas, as well as a couple pair of scrub pants I bought from goodwill. They're higher quality ones than the basic hospital scrubs, all mine are Dickies brand and a nice shape with flare leg. They make the best pajama/house pants because you don't have to change clothes to go run an errand. I don't have or wear any scrub tops though. I used to use the tops from work for dying my hair but they must have all been thrown away or lost by now.

Why did I think of you? I saw a guy in scrubs. I also couldn't help but overhear the conversation he had with some random woman who asked him what kind of doctor he was and he replied that he was a general surgeon, so maybe the scrubs made since...if he had been at work. He was at Panera, though. If it were me, even if I was just on a break and grabbing lunch or dinner, I think I'd probably cut my break short by a few minutes and change out of the scrubs when leaving work and back into them upon my return. But then, when I was in high school back in the stone ages, I worked at a place called The Great Hotdog Experience, and during lunch I'd wander across the mall to Taco Bell in my Hotdog Experience outfit and order my taco. So I guess maybe it's not that weird to wear scrubs to Panera.
