We took it apart but couldn’t find the blood anywhere. The lady proceeded to point out the ‘blood’ which was our actual homemade cranberry sauce.

Is there such place as non toxic ID firm? Or does any of ID attys like what they do? I moved from general practice to an ID firm six months ago. Biggest mistake of my life.

I seriously question my judgement. Need word of wisdom just to get through this hellhole

He then asked where the change was, and when I explained that I didn't give back the loose change, he made a big stink about how dollars and cents matter and didn't leave me a tip.

He was calmer and he told us to have a great day as he left us to clean up the mess he made.
