Embarrassing Complaint Against School (made kid w/broken leg crawl in snow)

[no_hypocrisy]

1. Monsters

Something similar happened to me as far as the callous attitude when I was seriously injured. I fell off a chair at work. (I lost my balance when shoving a 300 lb filing cabinet away to prevent it from falling forward on me.) I tore my ACL (major knee ligament). I couldn't stand, couldn't really move my leg due to the excrutiating pain. My boss found me splayed on the carpet, recognized that I was hurt. He didn't offer to help me get an ambulance or help me get up. He did offer to get me a cold can of soda to hold against the knee. I deferred, asking for whiskey. He didn't understand that I needed to numb the pain to get in a chair to get to a telephone to call my doctor. Not only did I have to badly hobble to the elevator, to the parking lot, to my car, but I have to drive with a stick shift (left knee, use your imagination how that felt) in the rain and dark to the doctor during rush hour traffic. I was out for 8 days when I found out my boss replaced me. I had to have physical therapy for two months, had to learn how to walk all over again, and somehow avoided surgery. My boss' insensitivity hurt as much as my leg.

I hope the parents really go after the teacher, the school, and the Board of Education.
