We all know non-physicians (lab techs, pharmacists, NPs, etc) wear white coats in the clinical setting.
But do you ever notice how these white coats (of non-physicians) are so much more bright and well-groomed than ours? I saw one the other day on a RT that was so white, it blinded me from across the wards. So well ironed, you could bounce a quarter off it and use the edges to cut meat.
Meanwhile, my white coat looks like its been through a coal mine. If I cultured it, I'd be sure to discover new microbes.
