Since December the 21st we have been working at least 14 hours a day to get screenwash, antifreeze and deicer to our customers. For a few days we have started at 3.30am and finished at 10pm at night. Just when things looked as though they were starting to get back to normal... BOOM!

I have tonsillitis!

Death feels like only two steps away.

Re: Payback for hard work

i hear ya. i had the best reviews of the foreigners at work and all i got was "i won't fire you"

Re: Payback for hard work

right on. zee tonsilitis blows, hope you feel better.

Re: Payback for hard work

damn, 3:30! Take it easy until you feel better, I've had a lot of sore throats over the past 10 years it seems, tonsillitis on a few occasions...but the worst was the sore throat I experienced during MONO, ffs that was no fun...

take care of numero uno mj

Re: Payback for hard work

Take care and gets some rest MJ. Hope you feel better.

Re: Payback for hard work

Hope you recover soon ;)

mikey, thought you were going to have 'em removed. maybe you should. on the bright side, you'd be forced to take time off of work and stuff your face with ice cream for a week.

The doctor told me that they only remove them in emergencies now-a-days. So me being two steps away from death doesn't count as an emergency? I feel like I have done 10 rounds with Tyson.

Re: Payback for hard work

^ coming soon to an america near you.

ps - that's bullshit. if you want em out you should be able to get em out.

Re: Payback for hard work

^^ Like I need to be poorly to do that !

This is my third day in bed now, the antibiotics don't seem to be working. I'm wondering if I have some form of flu as well. I need to see a quack.

Re: Payback for hard work

Aww MJ, that really sucks :(

I get step throat or tonsillitis at least 2 times a year, so I definitely feel your pain. I was told the same thing, that they won't remove tonsils anymore unless its an emergency or you get it more than 4 times a year or something to that effect.

I hope you feel better soon!

Re: Payback for hard work

i used to get that shit all of the time, 4 to 6 times a year, it was a fucking nightmare! so i took a little trip to mexico, about 1000 dlls later my nightmares where gone. Not kidding you, but ever since they where take out i haven't really gotten sick, like the flu, cold, all of those, are basically non existent to me.

Re: Payback for hard work

MJ, I have had a post nasal drip which has given me a throat infection for the last 5 weeks, 4 doctors visits 4 sets of antibiotics and just when i thought it was over i woke up this morning with it again. Feels like i am swollowing razorblades. Know just how you feel

Re: Payback for hard work

how are you feeling, btw, mr. mike?

Re: Payback for hard work

anti biotics are a farce, if you've taken them frequently throughout your life, you body is going to be immune to them, plus they kill EVERYTHING which weakens your immune system

[QUOTE=Garrick;830078]how are you feeling, btw, mr. mike?[/QUOTE]

Back at work today even though I am not really running on all cylinders. This is the shit you gotta do when you work for the family business. It's coming up to 5pm and I almost out of gas.

I need my bed.

I used to get regular tonsillitis than in my mid twenties it just stopped. And I stopped getting sore throats almost completely when I stopped smoking. !

Re: Payback for hard work

Feel better being sick this time of year sucks... i was decommissioned for almost 3 days myself last week with food poisoning.....:Barf:
