I used to work in a care home a few years ago. One sweet old gentleman used to pee in his waste paper basket. Of course it was my job among other things to tidy up the rooms and empty the waste paper baskets etc. The first time I emptied the basket, lifting it with gusto into the black dustbin bag I gasped in horror as the contents splashed out and soaked my open toe sandals with you know what. I was very cautious in future :)Mollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08604864977387798470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-208458117818248970.post-11114837518212543892012-06-05T13:55:51.101-04:002012-06-05T13:55:51.101-04:00Dear Olive - it takes someone unique to deal with ...Dear Olive - it takes someone unique to deal with working situations like that, and also to be able to keep your own humour and sanity intact.

I would think if you had chosen the despair route then it might have been a long, long road that would spill out into your personal life.
