    I watched my arthroscopic surgery on the same knee 7 years ago. On this go 'round I even saw the blood spatter a bit (I pulled the vailed sheet down a bit when they started).
    That's cool. I always find not being in control is a problem, but as long as they remember that you are there and awake, it's ok.


    Did she tell you about what she was doing while she did it, so you could follow it step by step, or was it obvious anyway?
    She did talk to me step...almost step by step. I made a big stink about going under and was just elated I didn't have to.

    Because of my company's good policies on time off with full pay they definitely don't want folks fucking off on a cruise ship.
    Silly bitch, your weapons cannot harm me. Don't you know who I am? I'm the Juggernaut, Bitchhhh!

    When my foot got messed up, I got three weeks off with full pay, without any restrictions on where I spent those weeks.

    But it's a different thing here. Our system has more of a socialist/liberal inkling than yours and our unions are different, so it's different what duties corporations have to their employees.

    And we do pay more taxes, a lot more, I think.


    Being able to go to the park with family whenever you want (and their schedules permit) and lots of small things like that, can't be bad, anyway, and surely the company can't mess with you about that.

    Yeah, but you weren't on an interweb forum, talking about it, the day after, were you.

    I might have gone online chatting about my injuries, if I'd been doing the forum-thing back in those days. Better than staring at the ceiling.

    Wasn't supposed to walk, for a couple of weeks, and there isn't that much to do otherwise. (when everyone else is working and whatnot.)

    It's been pimped by MTV, they got rid of his scars and gave him brand new stitching, some fancyarse koni ligaments, and a subwoofer in the trunk.

    No they can't. It's not like I'll be running around or anything.

    I just can't go on "vacation" and tbh, I wouldn't want to.

    Sorry to hear you were broke, Busy. Glad they were able to fix you. (at least that part of you)

    Best wishes on the healing.
