We had a bee come into the office today, which caused me to jump up and race for the flyswatter. I'm very allergic, the office is only 1/2 hour from a hospital so getting stung wouldn't be fatal but would still cost me a couple days of work, some pain and stress so, flyswatter. My coworker immediately started yelling at me not to swat the bee, not to kill the bee, love the bees!!!!
We made a deal, I would go outside and promise not to kill it, she would deal with it, name it, pet it and figure out how to get it outside. Three minutes later she comes running out, "It got me! It stung me!"
We return inside, and sure enough, the bee was in the ground, wriggling around dying. And my coworkers thumb is swollen and she couldn't type for the rest of the afternoon. I would have killed it quicker and less painfully.
