Hmmm... that would have to be when I was on my way out to an island in Georgian Bay to look for rattlesnakes. The bay got really rough with some big rollers, and the boat operator did not slow down right away. Our equipment bag looked like it was gonna bounce over the bow of the boat from hitting the waves so hard.
Anyway, I tried to make my way out to secure the bag and we nose dived into a big wave that forced me forward into the front of the boat. I went head first into the bow of the boat struck my head and luckily retrieved the equipment bag before it went overboard. Once I made it back to my seat, I took my hand away and my hand was blood-soaked and so was my eye. I grabbed a t-shirt and kept pressure on it till we got to the island.
The boat ride was an hour and half out to the island, we contemplated going back until someone found a sewing kit. I sewed my forehead shut, took two ibuprofen and went looking for snakes. Found 43 snakes which was our best day ever. When I got back that evening I went to the local vet (only doctor within 3 hours on the mainland), she took my stiches out and did a proper job. It was about a 2 inch vertical split.
I was installing computer systems in banks and department stores. I went down to Tampa to do an install and we got there and rented a light blue Pontiac LeMans and were driving to our motel. All of a sudden the cops pull in behind us with the lights and sirens going. We pull over and the two cops come out with their guns drawn. They order us out of the car and one cop pushes us against our rent a car. We had to show ID and told the cops we just flew in from Ohio. We showed the cops out plane tickets and they decided to let us go. They told us that two guys robbed a 7-11 store and took off in a light blue Pontiac LeMans. And then one of the cops shines his flashlight in my face and said "and one of them had a cut under his eyes" I realized that two days before I fell through a suspended ceiling nd I had a cut under my eye.
After the cops left I suggested that we should hold up a liquor store and those other two guys would get blamed for it.
We had a pt come to us that said his parents kept him in a cage with bright lights and kept poking him with needles and sharp objects. He kept talking about God and the devil. Then we realized he was in the ER, ran away, got a ride from someone and the person turned around and brought him back to the med group but took him to us (Mental Health). He was on drugs and his parents took him to the ER.
That’s an outpatient story. Patients inpatient were definitely interesting.
One time our fridge broke down and a lot of people could not eat the lunches they packed so the company gave us all free food which was desserts and pastries and chicken salad too. I loved that!
Not a very good hint. One day at the print shop, Chris, who is in his early 20's, and I, in my mid 40's, were running the mailer. It prints addresses on things that get sent out in bulk in the mail, letters, books, magazines, cards, etc.. As usual, I'm feeding and he's catching. That means, he's at the other end of the machine at least 8 or 10 feet away from me. As I'm sitting there feeding these magazines into the machine, he comes all the way over to me and, COMPLETELY out of the blue says, "My dick is this big around.", and holds his fist in front of his crotch as if he's holding his dick. Apparently, it's as big around as the business end of a baseball bat! After a second or two, he turns around and goes back to the other end of the machine and continues working! I never asked, or even wondered and I couldn't give a rats ass how big his dick is!!
On two different occasions in the span of about a month, month and a half, a kill team showed up at my compound for me and my team. Haha the new guy was all kinds of "WTF team am I on?" Good times.
I wasn't there but apparently a patient went rampant and almost destroyed the library. I work at a Mental health facility library. He broke the guitar that was in the library and almost tore down the bookshelves and fish tank.
Superb Opinion
