Guest guest Posted April 29, 2005 Report Share Posted April 29, 2005 As yall know, the doc took me off anti inflammatory until my blood count comes up so I am gimpier than usual. My supervisor is hardly ever sick, and doesn't have empathy for anyone. But let him get the sniffles and you'd think he was having to give BIRTH or something. Well, I was trying to get up from my desk to take a stack of work (that HE had piled on my desk) to the RIGHT place. I had my cane, but my knee and hip both decided to get those " take your breath away " pains at the same time, and my knee folded on me. I managed to catch myself before I fell, which hurt the heck out of my swollen up hands and wrists......for some reason, he thought this was hilarious and just laughed his a__ off. I guess I must have really given him one of Those Looks, because he stopped dead and said, " that wasn't really funny, was it? " I wanted to beat him over the head with my cane. I just looked at him and said, " No. that was not funny. in the least. " and walked off with as much dignity as I could muster. The Old Jane would have flipped him off on the way out, after verbally tearing him to shreds. And she almost burst out of me like that monster in Alien? But God's grace was sufficient for me not to beat down that poor, inconsiderate, ignorant.....sorry. I'm feeling much better now. That really did piss me off, though. Thanks for listening.

Guest guest Posted April 29, 2005 Report Share Posted April 29, 2005 His reaction is typical: they react without thinking. Par for the course, huh? This dies really suck, doesn't it. I know when jokes have been made at my expense, I just wave my forearm crutch at them and tell them that " I have a cripplestick and I'm not afraid to use it, on anyone " . Hang in there. Has your hip and knee started to behave??....Marina > As yall know, the doc took me off anti inflammatory until my blood > count comes up so I am gimpier than usual.
