Fishooked Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Nothing like crapping constantly when you've haven't eaten any food in the last 36 hours... I went into work yesterday after being up all night, and then vomiting just before I left work (because in this economy, you should be happy you still have a job right, and have go in no matter what )....then I promptly fell asleep at my desk on a conference call. They had to force me out the door after the call was over, and then I fell asleep from 12 noon yesterday until 7am this morning. I wore thermals, sweatpants, wool socks, 2 sweatshirts, a fleeze jacket, and wool hat to bed, and was still freezing, even with 3 blankets... Pray my friends.....pray you do not get this vicious strain of single-celled blight.... ...that is all... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Borgoguy Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Sorry for your ordeal and, I'm sure, singed anal canal. Believe it or not, you may have actually been exposed to a food born pathogen, which can take 12 hours after eating to show itself. In any case, please feel better and get back here soon. We need our daily fix of demented images and those of scantily clad Asian females. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Borgoguy Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Effin Cracker Barrel As a former chef, and someone who has attempted to train kitchen personnel, food handlers--and their deplorable sanitary habits--are my biggest pet peeve. Next time you are getting some food at a deli, or coffee at a coffee shop, stand in the back and watch how many times the people behind the counter touch their mouth or nose, cough or sneeze into their hand, pickup something from the floor then serve your food, etc... Or, the one's that come back from a cigarette break outside and start serving without washing their hands. We did this exercise during a food safety course I took through the San Francisco Health Dept., and every one of us was shocked and changed for life. A few years ago, my wife is having lunch with a friend at a small restaurant and a bus person--no joke--is slicing lemons on a board where a kitchen staffer is cutting up chicken. (Enjoy the iced tea, folks.) Luckily she noticed and walked out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

32green Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Fish, I feel for you bro. I had that about a month ago and it was just like you described. And I NEVER get the flu (at least thats what I think it was) My wife had to come home from work early because she heard the way I sounded on the phone...I fell into bed in a delirious state and stayed there, interrupted only by stumbley trips to the can, for about 30 hours...the only thing that literally saved my azz was that I remembered to apply some maalox to my tuchus after each explosion. It counter-acts the acid from burning your sensitive cheeks region. It affected the kids different, with my two year old being normal during the day, then puking NIGHTLY for six nights all over everything, then staying up crying. Joy My 11 year old had it like me, but not so bad. I cant believe you even went into work, lol.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnyHector Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 It counter-acts the acid from burning your sensitive cheeks region. Since gastric fluid is around a 1 on the pH scale, you need an equally strong base to counteract the acid. Might I suggest some lye and a pair of chemical gloves next time you are in this predicament... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishooked Posted February 17, 2009 Author Share Posted February 17, 2009 Start playing COD It's all about Fallout 3 now...lol...plus I was still delirious this morning, the very thought of packing lunches for the kids and dragging my sweat-laden body to daycare to drop them off was too much for me to bear.

That's pretty much exactly what I went through...you know that weird 'muscle -spasm shake' you get when you've just drifted off to sleep? Well thats what happened to me at my desk, on this conference call (good thing I was on mute).

Wash your hands when you arrive at work, after going to the bathroom, before you eat, and when you get home from work. This will save you from most bacterial and viral bugs. It won't, however, save you from the server who has not adhered to my suggestions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerryK Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 I'll share my fun this last week... Last Monday, I head to St Louis for 3 days and get extended to a week. Wife & kids not happy. Tuesday night my cellphone rings. The dog got out and was hit by a car, and was in a plastic bag in my neighbors (in-laws) garage. (and I'm 4 states away). My wife and kids are in freefall. Wed the ground is warm enough that the dog can be buried in grandpa's yard. He's 70yrs old but digs the grave because the dad (me) is still 4 states away. Kids don't eat for 24hrs. Friday I come home. I'm picked up at the bus stop and we head to my wife's favorite chinese restaurant. We get out of the car and my oldest kid PUKES in the parking lost. We get right back in the car and leave immediately. all kids are crying because they either can't go to the restaurant or just puked. That night Puker#1 is joined by his brother for a night-long pukefest into Saturday. Saturday night 3rd child rides the puke train. Last night My wife gets it. I'm the only one left. ...waiting for death to come like a man marooned on a sandbar. It's only a matter of time. tick...tock....tick...tock...
