We deliver our papers every Thursday morning. First thing this morning we get a call from a customer. He says he opened the paper box, to get a paper out, and got stung by a bee. He was pretty irate from what I understand. So, my bossman went down to the "crime scene" (lol) to make sure the man was ok, and to have a look at the box - to make sure there was no nest or anything. All is well but if I could talk to the man I would have said "Dude, we didn't intentionally put the bee in the box so he could sting you!!" Oh and "Don't sue please" :)
Sheese. I can understand being upset you were stung by a bee, but really, how can you blame the company? Then again, if McDonalds can be sued for serving HOT coffee (DUH!), then I guess anything is possible eh?
Just thought I would share that as it is the only exciting thing to happen at work so far today...LOL :D

coffee is hot? I didn't know, thanks for the warning D-Zine. I was about to make some and pour it down my pants. That's weird.

ok just kidding. My boss is cool so of course he went down there to make sure the dude was alright and see if there was anything he could do. But man..what a wuss that dude musta been! Didn't he ever get stung as a kid? I could understand if he were allergic to bee stings, but he apparently wasn't..lol

Next time I get bit by a mosquito on the soccer field I am going to phone the City and demand that I get a voucher for the bloodbank to get back my displaced plasma.

I don't hate bees so much since they are more gentle and tend to stay away from you (unless you're wearing something that attracts them), but I absolutely can't stand wasps. More worthless, annoying insect ever. And there seems to be more and more of them every year.

Ants - ick! I have something in my attic!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I dunno what it is. Rat? Squirrel? I opened the attic door last night and lil rat or squirrel or whatever droppings came down - ACK!
I can hear him scratching up top, in the back left corner of my living room. Who do I call? Pest control comes every other month but they don't cover *rodents* do they? :eek: Maybe I need to call to find out. I don't want anything dying up there and I definately don't want anything chewing up any wiring or anything! YIKES!!

Bee's are attracted to dark colors like black brown etc. (like my hair), so wear someting bright like white etc.
