Workplace respect should go both ways, regardless of someone's position or job title. But one pregnant ER nurse found herself dealing with a doctor who seemed to think snapping his fingers and giving orders was an acceptable way to treat a colleague.

While helping a patient before a procedure, she was asked to do something by a doctor from another unit. When she did not do this fast enough, according to the doctor, the doctor snapped at her, literally. The action was offensive to the nurse, and she responded in a tone the doctor did not appreciate.

Now, this nurse is wondering if she reacted in the right way, especially after a coworker said she should have ignored the doctor's behaviour all together.
