Can you get away with being unprofessional?

In the end she got a tea towel, wrapped it around the the zip pull, got down on her hands and knees, put the tea towel and zip pull between her teeth and tried to yank it down while I stood there in agony desperate for a wee.

Why on earth would she use her teeth?

Because she wasn't getting any grip with her hands. I don't know anyone with a fetish for biting tea towels.

I'd like to. However, my suggestions so far haven't been taken on board. Apparently organising the tablets by colour in a bucket and doing a "lucky dip" is considered to be a "Bad idea" by clinical governance. Personally regardless of whether it's paracetamol or temazepam the end result is good - pain is either gone, or you don't care it hurts anymore.

These people have no sense of adventure …..

During my first week as a 6th form tutor I managed to trip on a table leg and steady myself by grasping a pupils boob.
She didn't report me as such but she did disappear from my tutor group.

Hahahaha

Plus One. That's a corker.

I suppose this anecdote is an example of unprofessionalism when I was a waitress in a big restaurant ten years ago.

I was looking after a huge table of Americans who had been very fussy throughout and I was rushed off my feet by them.

 At the end I gave them the bill and the service was added. One of the Americans said he didn't think they should pay it as since they had been on holiday they had had service or VAT slapped on to everything. (He had no complaint about the service btw).
I could hear all this as I cleared up around him and so I said,

'Excuse me, are you criticising this country's tax system?  Only I have a brother fighting in Iraq along with Americans right now, willing to give his life for your president and you come here and don't want to pay the service'.

 I squeezed a couple of tears out and walked away hurriedly as if I was overcome with emotion.
 
They looked mortified and paid way more than the suggested service at the desk sending good wishes to my imaginary brother, while I was out back shaking with laughter.

My boss also thought it was hilarious but said I shouldn't make a habit of it.

Should have seen the eye-rolls when I suggested trolley-jousting as a team-building exercise - that time I was told that the Health and Safety Executive would not be happy.

The people you work for have too many rules IMHO!

[cariad1]

Agreed!

I used to work in a Boots which was in a large shopping centre and one of the night staff told me they used to take the chairs with wheels on them out into the empty shopping centre and have races, the security staff saw what they were up to and would place bets on who would win.

A large shopping centre was exactly where I was proposing the trolley joust to take place, the sloping entrance would allow for some serious speed to build up! I will concede that the escalators at the top of the slope were a potential hazard but we could award style points for anyone who made it down alive if they were unlucky enough to pitch down one. The glass automatic doors at the other end might have been an issue, but apparently it was too much of a public liability to be a goer. That and scattering members of the public like bowling pins not being good for business. NO imagination, I tell ya!

I am a whole girl, Fox, not just part of one.
