A cup of coffee

I've been spending most hours of each day this past week at various book stores and coffee shops around Cambridge, studying for the boards that I will take tomorrow. As much as I joke, I am nervous. Not passing renders me job-less for the next three months.

Here's today's best (i.e.: worst) question of the day. For the record, there are certainly some difficult questions, but just enough of a sprinkling of funny ones to make me plug on.

A nurse is performing peritoneal hemodialysis on a client. A second nurse observes her sitting by the client, drinking coffee and eating a donut and discussing the events of the client’s week. The first nurse should

a. Appreciate what a wonderful therapeutic relationship the nurse and client have
b. Grab a cup of coffee and join in on the conversation
c. Ask the client if he would like a cup of coffee as well (how rude of the first nurse!)
d. Ask the second nurse to refrain from eating and drinking near the client.

I'll grab a cup of coffee, thanks for asking….
