Yep, as a nursing/medical student you are the bottom of the pile. Whilst most staff members are perfectly lovely- theres always a few more interesting staff members. For example I recently witnessed the following exchange:
Doctor: Describe to me the course and distribution of the vestibulocochlear nerve
Student: I don't know
Doctor: Stand in the bin
(Student stands in bin)
Doctor: Why are you standing in the bin?
Student: Because you told me too?...
Doctor: No, its because your rubbish and thats where rubbish goes
Unsurprisingly the doctor was an 'old school' surgeon, with something of a reputation.
