That does not sound good at all! Are you ok?

[goth_twiglet]

I took the day off work today to recover from my ordeal!

[origamitiger]

Bloody hell, slapping for some people!

[goth_twiglet]

Slapping's too good for them! But I survived.

Did your day improve? I could tell it wasn't going well.

hmmm, when 'better safe than sorry' starts becoming totally ridiculous....

7 blinking miles. flip.

I shall grab hold of hte nearest immovable object if it happens again!

That's awful. I'm a first aider, and I'd have given you the water.

Just out of interest, if you're conscious no-one can make you get in an ambulance if you really don't want to. They might have asked you to sign something saying you'd been advised to go to hospital and had declined (I've seen that done when someone had a bang on the head), but they couldn't force you (apart from some extreme circumstances).

I think you should complain very strongly to your manager, HR, Health and Safety and anyone else who will listen. Seven miles whilst dehydrated, that's ridiculous.

Hope you're feeling better now.

I'm seconding making a complaint.

I thought that I had my bus pass with me....... It was only when I got to the hospital and rummaged through the tescos bag of doom that I remembered having left it next to the fridge in the staff room when I put my sarnies away. So much for an ill-gotten afternoon off work!

That really sucks! Muppets!

I have taken today off, not because I"m particularly unwell, but just to make me feel beter about the whole ridiculous excercise.
