kinda gross?

Jul 16, 2006 19:35

I went into the bathroom at work to wash my hands. There was an old lady trying to find her stall, completely naked from the waist down except for a pair of socks.. I just kinda stopped and stood a little away from the door, because I guess I was trying to stay out of her way since I had no clue what was happening. The lady behind me almost ran into me, and was about to yell at me when she looked and saw the old lady, and was just like, "Oh!...." So there was about four different women in the bathroom, plus the old lady. We all pretended nothing was happening, because the old lady was walking back and forth from her pants [which were in the stall], to the sink [where she was getting water to splash on her soiled pants I'm assuming]. So we all do our thing and leave. I come back about five minutes later and the old lady was coming out of the bathroom, dressed but with no shoes on. A younger man [I'm guessing 45 or so] was waiting for her. I had gone back to make sure she wasn't still in there, and if she was, to I guess help or tell people not to use the bathroom, or ask her if she wanted me to get her a new pair of pants [since I was working and had on my nametag]. Does that mean I'm going to be a good nurse because I can deal with that stuff and wouldn't be grossed out helping? Or does that mean I'm just a decent compassionate person? Or does that mean a little bit of both?Any way, I felt bad for her, because I know that is the most awful thing to happen to you, because it's happened to my mom when she had a bag [she doesn't anymore]. I'm just glad nobody in the bathroom said anything mean to her or laughed, because I might have been upset about them saying something and cried, or hurt them.
