Hmmm,
No way of saying this nicely...today at work an old man literally fell over and died frown

What a way to go...dying when choosing books to read over Easter. How totally everyday and unprepared/unaware.

I couldn't believe people just blatantly asking questions over the counter. One woman overheard me on the telephone to the council staff and just started asking questions puke

"Did someone die? Was it violent?"

I just ran right over her..."You were enquiring about language lessons in the local area, now is there anything else I can help you with?" until she got the message. She wasn't the only one. I can't believe the way some people acted...as if it was entertainment. Ghouls.
And people just sitting at their PC's typing away like trained zombies or flipping through the CD racks while the ambo's came and took the body away (I couldn't look). We didn't even close...it was just so disrespectful.

Some staff members who tried first aid went home very upset. They did absolutely everything they could and I have so much respect for how they behaved and responded.

Thanks Tillby for the Mexican dinner and for letting me unload all of that smile

I was at a reptile centre with my sister and our kids and an old lady had a stroke. It was right in the middle of a talk on reptiles and they were about to bring out the lizards and the big python for everyone to see and touch. I don't know whether she died or not but she was out cold, it was so upsetting that we left (there were already too many people crowding around her and trying to help). The ambulance was arriving as we were going. It was so awful. frown

Regrets. I regret not doing more with my life when I was young. I spent many years sleeping and doing nothing at all.

Yes thats probably because i am always thinking, its very rare that my minds just blank or silent, there is always more than one thing happening up there. smile
