[QUOTE="eekysign, post: 283723, member: 6479"] Just got a text from her - she says she's alerted her whole staff of what to do if anything goes wrong, or she seems to be acting funny. And says that if she feels weird at all, she's leaving and going to the ER. And that's she's gonna try to get a referral to a new doctor on Monday (which is hard because although we live in a major metro area, this is really the only hematology group here). Her store has a major event tonight with a national band, and she's in charge of it. A stroke is about the only thing that WOULD get her to leave her employees without a leader, so no pre-emptive ER visit, sadly. :( In fun other news, one of my coworkers and I were watching another coworker clean up after the lunchtime party; the second coworker was making sure anything we hadn't used was saved for next time. Coworker 1 turned to me and quietly signed (she's deaf) "Jew". Because Coworker 2 IS Jewish. And Coworker 1 [U]wasn't[/U] trying to be funny, she was rolling her eyes, shaking her head, and looking disgusted. I think my head almost exploded from 1) being totally shocked 2) being totally offended and 3) trying REALLY hard not to laugh, because the next thing I had to say was: "My family's Jewish, too.". And then I just STARED at Coworker 1, as hard as I could. She turned about 40 colors of purple. So funny, but tragic. I'm debating on whether to tell my boss. It'll just make life miserable for me if she finds out I "tattled", but maybe I could get him to just put a note from me in the file describing the incident? I just want to make sure that if she ever gets called out for saying something like that again, there's documentation that she's a freaking bigoted jerk. Ugh. [/QUOTE]
