Recently one of our employees said she was bitten by a spider. She ignored it for a week then started acting like she was going to fall over and die. Of course since she's a drama queen of the highest order this is normal for her when in even the slightest amount of pain. I told her to tell her mother about it and go to the doctor. Of course she didn't instead she waited another day then her leg started to turn red. Turns out she had blood poisoning and her mother had to take her to the emergency room. This is the angry phone call we received from her mother afterward.
T=one of my managers

S=employee bitten by brown recluse!

T: hello this is T how can I help you?
AM: This is S's mom SHE WAS BITTEN BY A BROWN RECLUSE AND HAS BLOOD POISONING!!!
T: OMG is she ok?
AM: (starting to get really mad and going into psycho rant mode) YOU SHOULD HAVE SENT HER HOME SINCE SHE WASN'T FEELING WELL!!!!
T: (not a doctor and therefor not qualified to diagnose mysterious arachnid bites) You shouldn't have sent her to work
AM: (rant deflated upon realizing poor parenting) Um Er Well I didn't know. Anyway the doctor said she can't come back to work for a month.
