How long were you there? One day would be too many days.

Great illustration. You are so good at this, I turn green with envy. Since my favorite color is green maybe it isn't so bad.

Harpy is a highly appropriate name for your "care" givers!

Another good one.

I've been looking for a job and can't get a nibble, and jerks like that are working! Life is SO unfair!

At first, I thought calling them harpies was a terrible thing. The more your story comes out, though, the more I agree. There is no excuse for them to be like that.

I do enjoy your puzzles.

Thanks all. I don't remember exactly how long I was there. About a week I guess. I don't know what titles the workers had that changed the bed linens, etc. In a hospital they have CSR's who require training, but these people didn't seem to have any kind of training or any special skills. In all fairness the ugly word GREED is probably a factor in their behavior. Since working in that capacity was probably one of the few jobs they could get, they were taken advantage of a made to do the work of two or three people. They always seemed to be in a huge hurry.

It doesn't matter how or why they have their job or if they are under payed or unhappy with their job. You don't take it out on the patients who didn't choose to be ill or injured and end up at this place. It all comes down to the Golden Rule. Do unto others as you would have done to yourself. :)

I tried to look up this facility online to see what kind of rating they had or read the reviews about them. It seems they no longer exist and I can't remember the name so I don't know it they were closed down or what.

Geez, this is horrible. Great puzzle though.

Aldege, I agree with you 100%.
#10: Norma Dee (norm0908) on Aug 25, 2016
Thank you, Teresa.

Ditto Teresa

Thx girls. You know it takes the same amount of energy being nice to people as it does being mean. The difference is you'll feel really good and upbeat being nice and you'll just feel like shit being nasty. Being kind and helpful to people is the best therapy a person can get. You'll be much healthier for it. :)

I almost forgot. I had one very special visitor. I was surprised when a little black dog came barreling into the room and jumped up to see me. I don't think he was a therapy dog because the people that brought him were a little impatient to move on. So I think he may have belonged to one of the residents. But he was so cute. I think he sensed my distress. He came to visit a couple of more times and always ran in to see me.
