On monday, I was working on an AC repair.
I was at the residential address half of the day.
The repair was going fine until I tripped over a rock and twisted my ankle. I couldn’t get up. My ankle was swelling up fast. I honestly thought it might have been broken. I called my boss so I could go to the emergency room for an x-ray. He told me to suck it up and go on with my day. I sent him a couple of pictures of my foot and that made him change his mind. The doctor at the emergency room said that I was lucky I went to the hospital because it was a bad spring. He told me to stay off my foot for a week and put me in a special boot. He told me that I would not be able to work on heating and AC repairs for the next 5 days. My boss was not very happy when I told him the Great news. He had to pay me for 5 days of work or find something for me to do at the office that would be low impact. On Tuesday, my boss let me stay home. On Wednesday, he called in the morning to tell me to come to work. He wanted me to clean out the back storage room. He said I could take the rest of the week to get all of the work done. I’ve already found a couple of neat things in the storage room since I started cleaning. The boss didn’t know we had a 4 ton AC unit in a box back there. He also didn’t know that we had an industrial air purifier back there
