When I had the IV in the hospital half of my arm was badly bruised. I do bruise easily, but it was awful looking.
I always bruise badly with needles. It's just usually smaller bruises.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Our wings are not tired.
Best part? 5 BLOCK walk from home.
That would be perfect! I was a mile from my office, which was a bike ride or a walk. Now it is 20 miles and really inconvenient.
A look at real estate ads revealed a house a block away from where I was living near the office. Of course I have to get this place on the market and sell it before I can buy another, but that would be ideal.

Thrive to spite them
So another co worker got fired for being stupid.
Titanfall is the big Xbox game that came out, it was street dated and almost everything with Titanfall on it had a streetdate either right before, during, or after the actual game release (there are themed headphones and controls). One item is/was a Xbox Live card, were you get 13 months instead of 12 at the regular price. And it has the Titanfall picture on it.
So, I guess my dumb ex coworker got a call from his dumb friend (who works at another store) and said - hey if you ring these up w/ your employee discount they are free! This was before the street date for this item.
So ex co worker bought FIVE. And then told, basically everyone - hey there are these cards, you can buy them for free! And someone checked to see if it was legit and it turned out that not only was it not legit those prepaid cards weren't supposed to go on sale for a few days.
And so he was fired. And the confiscated the cards. He should have known there was no way that Microsoft was going to give away 13 months of xbox live subscription or allow someone to get 5 1/2 years (roughly) for free.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
I think your coworker was fortunate that your employer realized it was stupidity rather than deliberate dishonesty and stopped at firing him and confiscating the cards.
