Yet another true story Posted by Kaupanger (VIP) Jun 2 2006 7:23AM This was prompted by Handimans excellent posts. A long time ago, for my sins, I used to work for the Civil Service. Before that, Id had a lot of really heavy manual labouring jobs. I was also a very keen sportsman and played competitive football every Saturday. Not surprisingly, I picked up quite a few injuries but, apart from a couple of twisted ankles, never let them curtail my activities. Well, one day in the office, I twinged a probably already weakened wrist when getting into my chair. Simply to provide support (so that I didnt have to cancel tennis and squash games), I strapped the wrist up. The next day, the office manager saw my bandage and asked what had happened. Thinking nothing of it, I gave a dismissive reply. The upshot was that I had to go into her office so that we could have an accident review. Never having encountered one of these before, I could hardly believe it was happening. The final question was: Now, what has this incident taught you. Many replies came to mind! However, the one that had me in internal convulsions was: I shall have to learn how to sit down more carefully. The manager didnt even smile and, fortunately enough, I was able to keep a straight face for as long as was necessary. |
