Nurses, here’s the soundtrack to your (work) life

Whether you’re going to or coming from work, listening to a favorite tune at high volume is bound to make a crazy day a teeny bit less painful.
Curious about your musical inclinations, we asked you to share with us the songs that pump you up, cheer you up or simply make you feel like a total badass. Not surprisingly, we got some pretty fitting responses on our Funny Nurses Facebook page.

Check ’em out and let us know what you think—is an official playlist in order?
