I think that Opportunity just ding-dong ditched me...

This last week, a friend told me that they could get me a job where they work. Boy, they were not kidding. I got interviewed the day after putting in my application, and they accepted me on the spot. All that was left was to get the pre-employment drug and backgroung screening out of the way. No problem. I've never been arrested, and I don't drink, let alone do drugs. However, as the days dragged on with no word on when I start, I've grown antsy.

Enter today...

I made up my mind that I was going to go down there, and find out what was going on. Well, on the way there, I ran into a man riding a bicycle...literally. He tried to get out of my way, I tried to get out of his, and we collided right into eachother. My first reaction? "OhmygodI'msosorry! Are you okay?!" He was, and quickly got back on his bike and peddaled away with nary a thought for my condition. I resolved to put it behind me, though my arms were sore from getting knocked over. By the time I got to the store, though, I could tell that my hands hurt when I flexed them, and my left arm had about a thirty degree range of movement before it too caused me pain. The people I wanted to talk to weren't even in today.

So now, here I am at home, and I can barely use my hands, arm, or my left leg. Even sleep is difficult, due to the logistics of finding a comfortable position. The kicker? They're supposed to be hiring me as an overnight stocker. So now the race is on. Will I heal before I get the call? Or will I have to tell them that I've been crippled in the week since my interview, and can't do the job after all?
