    Hospital? Where's that?

    Ok, at my 2nd job most of the people are from Southern Pennsylvania. (long story about MD-So. Pa job market, anywhoo).

    One of the mechanics sliced his finger yesterday. Manager told him he needed to go to the hospital and get stitches. (The clinic they normally go to closes at 5). Well after the guy complained for about 5-10 minutes that he didn't want to go to the hospital, he just wanted to go home, etc. He even said he would just sew it up himself. (I would have quit had he done this I think).

    After he started to feel dizzy it was decided that he would go to the hospital.

    No one knew how to get there! I had to write directions down for them. Now I get it that they don't live around there, but damn.

    Now, I like all these guys, they are quite nice, and good people, but... damn.

    It's easy to go to the hospital where I work.

    Go out the back, walk 100 feet.

      Rumack: You'd better tell the Captain we've got to land as soon as we can. This woman has to be gotten to a hospital.
      Elaine Dickinson: A hospital? What is it?
      Rumack: It's a big building with patients, but that's not important right now.

        Airplane! AWESOME movie!

        [OT] In the scene where the pilots are boarding the plane, there's a magazine rack to the...left I think of the doorway. Next time you watch it, look at the subject labels on the rack carefully. I swear that one of them says "whacking material".

        That is BY FAR one of the best movies. EVER!

              Wow, amazing they didn't do what one of the restaurant owners in my center did:

              Come to the pharmacy, and ask if there was anything over the counter they could put on it.
              No, sorry, gaping wound, please go to the ER....

                    The SO says that a piece of T-shirt with electrical tape is the best way to stop up bleeding so you can finish the day. Then he waits for me to come home and steri-strip him up.
                    The only words you said that I understood were "His", "Phone" and "Ya'll". The other 2 paragraphs worth was about as intelligible as a drunken Teletubby barkin' come on's at a Hooter's waitress.

                        Well, then I'll direct him to go bleed all over YOUR counter next time, then

                          Heh, works for me. Between the 900-degree pizza oven and some super-glue we can get that wound cauterized and sealed up in no-time flat!

                          But, seriously, they didn't even get it bandaged up properly?

                              Duct tape i the most amazing thing in the universe.

                              Anywho, I was working at a little store out in east Texas and had a paramedic walk in and ask where the hospital was from the store. There was no medical emergency or anything but it's still a scary thought....
