I don't know if anyone passed out in shock, but one of Grandma's friends did ask if she put the room number on the note, in case the staff might slip her some extra good stuff.
Actually the food does look good. Tonight's dinner choice she had was a "fried" (I think it was more breaded and baked) cod fillet, with wild rice and mushroom pilaf, zucchini & stewed tomatoes, with a salad and Oreo cookie pudding parfait for dessert.
I know when Grandma was in the hospital in June, when people heard she was getting out several of the nurses and aides came in to say good bye because they were going to be off the day she was released. She got hugs.
It was nice to see all the niceness, esp after the rude caller I had to deal with. although that was more funny than anything. Frustrating but funny after the fact.
This guy called and he wanted information but started telling his whole life story and he needed to call another number and he's yelling at me about this and that and not asking, but telling me, what information I'm going to give him. So everytime I started to tell him something he'd start yelling about how I was going to give him the information and not to trick him. I'm literally trying to tell him the address he needs and every time I get more than 2 words out he starts talking over me.
Someone thought I was having problems and mentioned it to my boss who came over and told me to hang up on him. I put the guy on hold and then tried to tellh im something but my boss took the phone and said "I will not allow you to talk to my staff this way and abuse them." the guy hung up.
So then he calls back, and starts going on about how he has our address and he's going to read it off and send a letter and blah blah blah and I keep saying "that's the address" and he says something like "you're going to not talk and listen and when I give the address you'll nod." (we're on the phone, so I'm not sure how nodding would work) and then I tried to say that's the address and he got all pissed and yelled about how dare I ask for his address.
So I hung up. Thank god we have caller id now becuase I made a note of his phone number and from now on that call is going straight to voice mail (another new wonderful option).
Oh and I'm getting a better computer at work. The IT people realized they forgot to reformat the drive after the person who was there for 10 years left, and then the replacement. But it's old so I'm getting a retired employee's computer. I was told this should solve the problem with opening up certain PDF files. I had a 20 gig hard drive and 90% of the space was used.
