    This boggles the mind. Sharps safety gets drilled into us like rifle training for a soldier. Never ever recap or resuse any sharp (needle, syringe, etc).

    People should lose their jobs over this.

    Unfortunately someone forgot to read the memo about one time use only! I don't work in the medical field and I know that needles and syringes are throw away.

    I also doubt if anybody will lose their jobs. Most likely a stern talking to. :roll:
