Now that's a start to a Monday morning...
-
I've been at my desk for about a 1/2 hour with my co-worker T. comes in. The first thing she says? "Leckey! I think I have a tick on my head! Can you get it off?" Yep, it was a tick. Good thing T. carries around a pair of tweezers. I broke into the 1st aid kit and people started freaking out that I was wearing blue nitrile gloves--like I'm doing surgery. Maybe they shouldn't keep the first aid kit next to the coffee machine. I have a feeling it's going to be a long week.
Yeah, I need to update this. Darn Judge Judy reruns! http://CraptasticNation.blogspot.com/[^]

The correct response is... "That is a medical matter and I am unqualified to act as a medical practitioner, I suggest you seek immediate medical advice" And that a) stops you having to pick through her dirty nit infested head, and b) stops you from being liable to medical malfeasance lawsuits. :)

I thought afterwards I probably should have sent her to a designated 1st responder, but I have basic medical training (including handling bloodborne pathogens) so I really didn't think twice about it--other than, "Wow. What a way to start a Monday."

Didn't you get ticked off?

I'm used to the term nit, but not sure if that is common in the US. BTW, I love how you quote yourself if your sig!

Hmmm, sounds like sarcasm to me! :) Anyway, I think you posted this thread in the wrong forum, surely it should be in Site Bugs?

I think the tick was also having a "case of the Mondays" so getting removed from a blood source and being crushed to oblivion may have been a relief.

Eeewwwww!! X| I will never in any circumstances touch the hair ( and accompanying ticks) of my colleagues.
Watched code never compiles.

Nahhh. The correct responce is "OMG that thing is huge!!!! By the size of it, it looks like you are attached to the tick!! You should really get that thing removed. Anyways I have work to do so skiddadle."
ASCII stupid question, get a stupid ANSI
