Welcome to #Checkin for Saturday, August 3rd, 2024!
Why howdy there #Checkin people, it’s me, Rod again.
Had a medical appointment with a new provider in a building I’d never been in before. I had a card listing an office on the 4th floor, so I took the extremely slow elevator up. The sign on the office door said “We have moved to room 204.” Damn. Must have been given an old card.
Since I dislike elevators and despise slow ones, I hit the stairs. When I got to the second floor, the door was locked. I would have called the front desk but discovered I had left my phone in the car, (it was at home) so I knocked. Then pounded. Then shouted at the top of my lungs. After kicking the door solidly for some minutes, I decided to try something else.
There was no door to the lobby, just a long single flight to an outside door. I trudged back up the stairs. 3rd floor door was locked, as was the 4th. Trudged back down to the outside exit.
Once outside, I found myself in a small patio of sorts that had a very high fence. A nearby door to the parking garage (another flight down) was also locked. Farther back a gate to ground level parking at the rear of the building was of course also locked. This was a clear fire safety violation.
At the rear of the enclosure was another smaller one containing a dumpster with yet another a gate, this one locked with a padlock from the outside. So, I climbed the dumpster to reach the top of the surrounding wall, and climbed over, dropping to the ground below. I scratched myself badly in a few places, and scraped some skin off of my left shin in the process.
Sweaty and dirty, I barely made my appointment. At least they provided some first aid.
So when I got home, I took a shower and dressed the wound again. I applied a lot of Neopsorin with Lidocaine on every little scratch, scrape and cut. My muscles are sore all over and my shin is throbbing. I don’t think I’ll sleep very comfortably tonight.
So how did your day go?
