General Discussion>Injured at work
DPD6030 02:28 AM 11-04-2008
I broke my wrist again tonight at work. Two idiots had broke into a car and ran on us. They went behind a building and I jumped an industrial air conditioner to follow them. While doing this I put my right hand down to steady myself. Not a good idea. Arrested the two suspects and after all the adreline came down my wrist was screaming in pain. Went to the ER and got a split and some meds. I am calling the orthopedic doc. tomorrow and see when they can get me in. This sucks majorly. On the bright side it will free up more time to smoke some sticks since I can't work at all. :-)

Sorry about the wrist, but you got the guys so that's a plus. Hope your wrist heals quickly and it doesn't hinder your cigar smoking.

You broke your wrist again? Bro, you gotta' be more careful. As a couple other guys mentioned, at least it wasn't worse.

My Rx for you: Time to sampling the dark side! :-)

sorry to hear bro, if it makes you feel any better, my left foot got jammed between a door and a heavy display today and I'm wearing an icepack on my anckle right now, so you're not the only one in pain.

Can you say, "Light duty." (translated, "riding a desk")

Do you have a chaplain for your department? I am for the Shawano Sheriff. If you were here, that's what you'd get. Meaning, you get to do transports and/or listen to complainants who come to the office. Loads of fun...

God's blessings on your recovery time.

Get well soon! :-)

Nope, my department doesn't have a "light duty" classification. So I'm at home until the wrist heals and I get the green light to get back to work. I'm going to be so bored. I have TV but only local over the air programming which is so darn stupid which all stations are switching to. It's like the it freezes and comes back. I've pretty much watched all my DVDs and I can't use the xbox360 since my whole hand is wrapped up. So I guess it's reading magazines and smoking sticks. Oh, maybe having a cold one or two or three! :-) Thanks for all the warm wishes.
