It’s been a while since I’ve worked at the furniture store, so I decided to grace them with my presence.
I hadn’t seem them for at least a month, so they were surprised to find me donning a brace. After I told them what happened I attempted to take my seat behind the cashier window and, no surprise to anyone, almost fell. “Let’s get you a stool,” my coworker said.
Once on the stool everything appeared to be going fine until I was attempting to swipe a credit card and my brace – although ‘small,’ it is quite bulky – bumped my coffee cup causing it to fall off my desk, bounce off the stool, and land in the garbage. Being that it wasn’t empty there was a quite bit of coffee ‘outside of the cup.’ My coworker kindly cleaned it up. “Sorry, like Buster, I’m a monster,” I said.
A little while later I decided to snack on some M&Ms from a nearby dispenser. I stuck my braced hand under the dispenser motion sensor and, not surprisingly, it got stuck. M&Ms were totally dumping out. When I finally managed to free my hand I picked up the M&Ms with my unbraced right hand and held them as best I could in my braced left hand. This wasn’t easy due to the fact that my brace covers most of my left palm and, within seconds, the M&Ms were all over the floor.
I can dress/brace me up, but I clearly can’t take me out.
