    If it were me having a 25-lb. frozen turkey land on my foot, I’d tell the grocer just to put the stuff back where they belong.

    That may be so, but there are a LOT of idiotic people who would ask just that. I worked in a place where a customer had a heart attack, and while being rushed out, the clerk asked if he still wanted his food, and that he’d have to pay first.

    why call the Medics, just call his wife and tell her to come get him and Lizzie. If his foot is broken I am not sure what they can do for it. I broke mine about a year ago and I just stayed off it for a few weeks and it healed.

    Stuffing is on aisle five.

    For my dad a heavy piece not hooked right fell and broke his foot in the middle. Sadly the doctor who worked with my dad towards the end when cast to come off went on vacation. This time frame was 35 to 40 years ago no PA then.

    I hope his insurance is paid up (not sure how Canada works) because that ambulance ride is $815 here (my ride last May).

    I was 8 months pregnant when my husband injured his hand on our bandsaw. Our 5 yr old daughter was completely clueless about the amount of pain he was in or the danger that he would be unable to use his hand. She found the whole thing fascinating. I find Elizabeth’s behavior totally realistic.

    Just put it in the dairy cooler, they can pay for it later then. just put the frozen stuff in a freezer! I can’t tell you how many times orders got put in the dairy cooler and then I, yes, I got in trouble for the other employee not putting the frozen stuff in the freezer and it rotted in the cooler.

    The answer to the clerk should be, “I’ll let my lawyer handle it.” At least it might scare the management enough to teach their staff to be more sympathetic.

    Lucky, right. after a long recovery, I got a job paying about 60% of what I had made, with very small raises. I started taking the bus and found out that I could get a bus pas for $7 a month because of my disability. You wouldn’t believe how many people said I was “lucky”. Also, they all thought that since I was hurt on a career ending job, that I got rich by suing the company.

    Oh so little do these office types know…..
