As a former newspaper reporter, I think it's totally plausible that the bitter old biddy (gender?) phoned up the paper. But JoB's theory also makes sense -- that one of the reporters had the B.O.B.'s contact info already from prior encounters.
Either way, it's *highly* likely that said reporter was rolling his/her eyes during the whole interview. And then immediately on hanging up, turned around and made a snide remark to the person at the next desk about bitter old ex-employees (believe me, you can smell 'em 100 yards away) and their stereotypical views of Kids Today.
Does that make you feel any better on your friend's behalf, Owl? 
Nothing acidic. Soup is always good. Or just canned chicken broth! Applesauce, rice, all the things they recommend for upset stomachs, too. Instant mashed potatoes?
Cloves are also good -- they were used for toothache pain going back to the Middle Ages. If it's boiling hot there in Australia, you may not want hot cider mulled with cloves (or tea ditto), but maybe ask someone to brew some and then chill it?
Yeah. My friend is really worried that she's going to lose her job
I actually think that it's good that the museum was offering job opportunities to young people, because so few places do down here- it's all filled with old grumpy people who don't like you just because you're young 0__0 (they're even mean and rude to
me, and -in all modesty- I'm a ridiculously polite goody-two-shoes. I had to leave the museum crying once because a lady was so rude to me about putting my book satchel in a locker. Maybe it was her they interviewed lol) the only places that want to hire young people are fast food chains and supermarkets, which sucks if you would like to get an actual job, (and have spent years getting a degree for a proper job) but I suppose we have to "work our way up from the very bottom and be grateful society even let us have a job because we're all so young and useless and should wait for our turn i.e: all the ancient employees die of old age and their dusty skeletons have to be vacuumed from their posts and the building exorcised lest their grumpy ghosts return from the afterlife to knock off the new replacement staff etc" blah blah blah.
Soup is good
but its a bit meh when its cold XD
The cloves sounds like an interesting idea though.....hmmmmm...could i put..,cloves in potato..?? 8/ *sluggishly scratches head*
Probably. It's not insanely sugary, and quite aseptic. (IIUC honey was used to treat (outward) wounds in earlier times due to that property, but I don't remember the specifics.)
No pertinent instructions from the dentist ... ?
I didn't even
see the dentist, just the nurses. They only said "nothing too warm, no rice, nothing to chew." they were a bit terse.... (and a bit mean too- just as i felt well enough to accept their offer of an ice cream they said no because I might get car sick [never happens] anyone who promises ice cream then denies last-minute is a meanie in my delirious book ;P)
I was hoping the honey might make my throat feel better....
Edit: the nurse also said no showers...? but i don't remember if she said no hot showers, or just...no showers...? But i really want a shower this morning... ;___;
Should i just """yolo""" and go have a shower?
