I am not sure what my problem is, but I hate wearing a wrist watch. I use to take pulse and respiration's by discreetly utilizing the patients wrist watch during the process (unbeknownst to them). In the event this was not possible, I used my Nokia cell phone, which looked like its from the early 1990's, however it finally stopped working and I replaced it with a smart phone. I am not so crazy about pulling out my smart phone with blood or god knows what on my gloves, then opening apps to find a stopwatch feature. I started carrying a cheap wrist watch in my pocket, but I lost it at work. So now I am considering getting a pocket watch (with a chain connected to my belt loop). Anyone else do this? I realize its probably more logical to carry a digital athletic style stopwatch, but it just does not call out to me in the same way. Anyone else not wear a wrist watch? If so, what do you use for work purposes?
