Bad day at work?
Nov. 17th, 2006 11:17 amMy sister's definition of a bad day at work is somewhat extreme — they certainly put my bad days into perspective. Here's an amusing, if grotesque example from last week:
One of the patients on the ward had constipation, so the doctors decided to do an anal exam and asked her to assist. So the doctor does the check and she takes off the glove with a flourish and, seeing what was about to happen, my sis closed her eyes and tensed up. There was a snapping sound, followed by the sound of an impact. My sister said, rather plaintively, "Please tell me it's not in my hair", only to discover, upon opening her eyes, that while it wasn't in her hair, the shitty glove had hit her on the shoulder. To the vast amusement of the rest of the staff, she decided to call it a day and went home. By bus. Covered in crap. Nice.
