She must have been disappointed in the way you "pegged" her ass.

Ok... poor choice of words and hell no!

Do it better with the new boss.

It’s another her and she’s great thus far but still a hell no

 

[Orangeburst]

Nope. Medical LOA when I quit this one I’m done with The Man

In reference to your Indeed comment and indeed.com . I know, it sucked,

Oh ok yeah no way I make that connection sorry and I’m too old to learn new tricks anyway.

Even when you start to feel better and aren't on as much med, do not do anything with that arm. Or else your therapy team will fuss at you, right @NorthDallas40 ?

I don’t think I have anything to worry about. I’m going to follow instructions because I sure don’t want to go through this again

The night of surgery after the nerve block wore off I damn near cried. They upped my pain meds. I weaned off of them but needed them for the first week. I was on Percocet.

Ice your damn shoulder!

I’ve been icing religiously.... to the point it hurts

Just curious. I imagine you do cold for inflammation, but do you ever get into heat therapy for blood flow?

The general rule from back when I played sports was cold on joints and connective tissue and heat on muscle for blood flow. That’s superseded if the muscle has significant swelling then you go cold till that subsides

Well, that is what peaked my interest as I beleive you guys have both connective tissue and muscle issues.

No muscle all joint and connective. Ice is the proscribed therapy

On stuff like rotator cuff repair the tell you no heat - just ice. My wife got one of these when she had some hip surgery. You fill it with ice and some water and it pumps icy water through the pad. I used it after a back procedure; it was pretty nice, but not worth the cost if you plan to be one and done on repairs. I will say it beat multiple trips to keep her in ice or to swap out the gel pads. I think we've used it three times so far.

Our company bonus we weren't expecting to be paid this year comes in today.

I wonder what my first Jelly of the Month flavor will be...

I’ve heard we expect this year to be ok but next year to be challenging on performance based pay. But remember this is the defense industry so we make a slug look like a cheetah

Was this due to covid?

The liberals would document it as such

Welp, my grandma has COPD and she doesn't have many Thanksgivings left so I'm choosing to opt out this year.

I will be cooking for myself and the woman and Skyping it in to the family.

Sorry to hear that Dink.

Sorry to hear that Dink.

At least I can drink a freshly acquired bottle of Nikka Days and not be lectured about it.
