Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evoloving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
Hey ya'll. So, I'm under the weather. Had to miss work, went to the afc clinic. I don't have a Dr yet since I moved. Body aches, headache , sinus pressure. Just feel flu like. Started yesterday. I called out, told them I'll go to Dr.
I get there, mask! I said I don't do covid stuff. Well blah blah, so I grab a mask don't put it on. Any way. Finally get back to triage. The little nurse says... you wanna covid test? I said nope. She said oh. Strep I said ok. Flu. Sure. Ok. That's a covid , strep and flu. I said nope. I refuse the covid test. I already told you.
She does a strep and flu. I hear her holler out, your patient is Negative on strep! I feel like shit ya'll, I know ingot the flu. Dr comes in 10 mins later.
Low and behold..... I have a supper cold! That will knock you on your ass for 7 days. I'm out of work til Friday. All he told me take was motrin, delays and musings d. I'd have to suffer thru the aches. And I'd be miserable. Could go back tonwork Fri or Sat.
So sorry for the bad spelling. Mucinex d. And delsym. I got no rx. I'm sire I'm gonna lose my job. When I told them. They were SHOCKED I REFUSED A COVID TEST!
