Supposed to be quite entertaining. I may pop along if my knee injury gets a
bit better...

 

What have you done to yourself?

 

Work related. Got kicked by a stroppy 12 year old. Not uncommon in my job
and rarely resuslts in an injury. This time, I was wearing a pair of combat
trousers with my Nokia 6300[1] in the left pocket at knee level. Said kid
managed to kick the phone which must have embedded itself into a tendon or
somesuch.

Since last Saturday I have had a partially paralysed left leg. I can't lift
my left foot off the ground when seated. When standing, I can raise my foot
as you use a different muscle group, so I can walk, sort of. It's been
looked at by A&E and then orthopods. Three different diagnoses, ranging
from a ruptured tendon to a bruised nerve. I've been signed off work for 2
weeks and asked to go back. They are hoping that after the swelling has
gone down I will be able to move properly again. Early signs are promising
as I have a little movement back.

Not being able to drive is a PITA. Shame my C2 doesn't have the flappy
paddle gearbox...

[1] this phone has a metal casing

 

He's hurt his knee

HTH

 

Bugger. Do you get to club the little bastard senseless in return?

GWS.

 

Immensely.

 

No. The kids come to me pre-disastered and often thoroughly buggered. I try
to fix them.

Cheers

 

It's easier and more satisfying to club the little cunts to death -
cheaper too. Saves the government a fortune as well.

 

You've not really understood the point of social work, have you.

IME there is little or no point.

 

Eh? I thought your job was on the periphery of social work.

 

I understand completely. Those that need help and want help can be
helped. The others are a waste of space.

 

I couldn't do your job.

 

Nor can I, at the moment. I'm broken.

 

what, to enable the middle-classes to sleep better at night because
they know that "something is being done"?

 

Of course. I'd rather something was done, than not done. Wouldn't
you?

yes, as long as the something is effective and benefits society as a
whole.
