I returned to my office, shaky but fairly confident I’d dodged a bullet.
In other words, you know you did a BIG wrong that you could be legally liable for, and you could get in a lot of trouble for it. You're happy you got away with it? Were you and your surgery staff getting so stoned the night before that you didn't notice what the cat was there for? You should be harder on yourself than anyone on earth for your inept practice of veterinary medicine!
Betrayal is powerful and sharp. I was hurt and angry. If that was how she felt, why allow me to believe my mistake was forgiven?
Perhaps she is a person, like me, that would have been using every single molecule in her body to keep from going for your throat? Count yourself lucky.
Oh JEEEEEEEEZ! I'm sorry, but that whole story sickens me. The "Boo Hoo, Poor Me. She didn't forgive my mistake," lean that the whole article takes makes me wanna *itch-slap her crazy for her whiney
take responsibility for your mistakes, people of this world, and don't whine about your mistakes!!! Your personal mistakes aren't caused by someone else with malice. It's your fault! Apologize. Learn from the mistake, and after your mistake is settled, MOVE ON WITH LIFE!!!! That's all you CAN do.
The one thing I find that the patient did wrong was going back to the same place at all. That's stupid.
