Especially when they are for some unfathomable reason very angry with you!<br /><br />When confused, in pain, <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">disorientated</span> and being sick do not ask the above mentioned boss if they think you should go to the doctor - because sometimes the boss says stupid things like "oh probably not"<br /><br />Do listen to your older sister who tells you on the phone in no uncertain terms that you should get yourself to the doctor ASAP.<br /><br />Going to the doctor and finding yourself crying from the moment they say hello to the moment you leave with a 5 day sick note and orders to rest is a good thing!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/28311624-6399265629387756606?l=sexandthesinglesaucepan.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Mianoreply@blogger.com1
