Complaint Thursdays

Yah, I'm calling them later today and asking for something stronger. This stuff just makes me drowsy and does nothing for the pain, so I sleep, but it's hellish cuz every little bump causes my ankle to flare like a forest fire.

 

I've got some good stuff left over from my knee surgery two weeks ago. They gave me 40 pills and I only took one. I will accept the highest offer.

Save them. Drink a six pack. Take a couple. Drink another six pack. Wring the drool out of your pillow 15 hours later. Best sleep of your life.

This day cannot end soon enough. If it wasn't bad enough that my boss has been hounding me about not finishing my projects (by the way, he was doing so from the road), since he's gone, if anyone has an issue with a decision that he has made in the last 10 months (that's as long as I've been with the company), they come take it out on me, as if I'm supposed to know the reasoning behind every decision my boss (a man who has been with the company for 10-15 years) makes.

 

I am so sick of people cornering me today trying to get me to sign off on changes to things that i have not been a part of, and then yelling at me as if it's my fault that it is that way to begin with! JEEZ PEOPLE! LAY OFF! I'm still learning!

I just snapped at 2 of them. I just asked them, "what the F*** do you want me to do about it? I didn't make the decision, I didn't make the drawings, if you had a problem with it then, you should've said something...THEN!"

 

Everyone has avoided walking in the vicinity of my cubicle now...oops :rolleyes:

Next poor soul that comes in. You should already know what response to give them. It starts with I and ends with YOU and has nothing to do with love.

this is good advice ... depending on what they gave him. lortabs, vikes, and anything ending in 'codone" or "cet" will do the trick. anything ending in "odol" might not have the desired affect.

 

"gee chris ... know much about OTC drugs?" yes, sadly. yes i do. :)

Usually i do, you could ask a lot of my friends...I can put up with a great deal of crap most of the time. It's just that since it's been the same crap every time my boss has gone out of town for the last 10 months, the schtick has worn me down.

 

I tend to leave work AT work, and then my home life at home. It makes everything better.

 

Congrats on the newborn, and good luck with the house buying!

Yeah, it's oxycodone and I'll probably destroy them this weekend. I'm too stubborn to take something like aspirin half the time, so there's no way I'm messing around with this stuff.

Dennis Ritchie has reportedly died. He was one of the founders of the C programming language and UNIX operating system. You guys probably don't know who he is, but odds are almost 100% you're carrying around a phone that uses the language, and if Android or IOS, possibly some of the code he wrote. The computer you're using almost certainly uses bits of code and it does use the language.

I needed oxycodone for knee and eye surgeries. The knee surgery was the worst pain I ever felt in my life, I guess that can be expected when the doc drills straight through your tibia five times though. Anyway, I was popping them like crazy after that surgery and felt the wrath of the most undesirable side effect of those pills......constipation. Absolutely brutal. Moral of the story, if you can handle the pain don't take them.

Found out I was allergic to all the "odone" stuff and codeine. So many hives I looked like I had chickenpox.

I have a date tomorrow night (spoliers for the F'N Friday thread!) and I don't know how to date someone local any more. The last two girlfriends lived out of town, and the one before that our first date was in 2003. Anything changed in the last 8 years?

 

Sex. They've changed it.

Erie County's 911 system is screwed up. I came across a women who while driving passed out somehow she did not hit me as her car was still in drive. While a couple of other guys ran to the car in an attempt to stop it, I called 911. I played 20 questions, and was then told, "hold while we transfer you", and then proceeded to play another round of 20 questions.

 

In the meantime, this women is unconscious in her car.

 

What the heck is the transfer all about. I can only hope they dispatched someone prior to ending the 2nd round of 20 questions. If not... :wallbash: :wallbash:

having used a metric sh**-ton of OTC drugs for upper back and tension headaches, i can tell you this: *always* cut the pill in half. even with lortab 5s (the weakest normal dose), i cut it in half because a full pill knocks me on my keister for literally a day. a full 10 not only does not help the pain, but it leaves me with a chemical hangover that's exponentially worse than the original headache. so i've learned that the full pill is not only not necessary--it's sometimes detrimental.

 

as for not wanting them on hand, i can understand that. however, as a recommendation, i would keep at least a few on hand, again cutting them in half and using as necessary. you never know when something *that* unbearably painful is going to come along. as long as they're out of the reach of kids and in a locked, secure cabinet, i'd hold some back for those "didn't see that coming" moments.

Today is my birthday. The wife and I went to the casino and I played craps for the first time ever. Literally walked up to an empty table and asked the (dealer?) how to play. I won a couple hundred dollars even after tipping the (dealer?) handsomely.

 

Just got a call out of the blue from my adult step-son. He and his fiance offered to come home from college near Rochester tonight to watch my two younger kids so we can go out again tonight.

 

Sorry I've got no complaints but if I waited until F'n Friday to post this, the first point would no longer have been valid. :)
