    Lmao! Not implying, it was part of the job, mandatory even. Nurse’s assistant.

    But part of the job is interacting with family of the patients, and a bit of human contact goes a long way. Holding a hand, a touch on the shoulder, even a hug when needed. That’s the kind of touch I meant.

    Well, there were a few instances where family of patients ended up being touched in other ways lol. But not while on duty, and not typically while working for their loved one. Things can get tangled up when you’re around someone every day, no matter how hard you work to keep yourself professional only.

      Oh! I work in an office so that last bit I was like oh no, don’t touch your coworkers in the office. No no no.
