Shoulder Injury at work
I work in fast food, the floor was wet.
I was stressed, and man had come in with a gun. He threatened my friends, my coworkers. I didn’t even know he had a gun.
After he left I got back to work, I fell. I fell right into the metal basin we keep our custard in.
Tried catching myself with my free arm. It just went up, it wasn’t meant to go up.
I couldn’t move it, I still can’t move it without pain. I can’t move my shoulder up and down. All I can do is untense myself.
Im stressed. My paycheck comes in next Friday, I don’t want anyone to touch it. My partners saying I need to go to the hospital. I don’t want my parents seeing it and thinking they can fix it.
They’re helpers like that.
I’m scared, I’m telling myself it’s just bruised. I’m probably being dramatic and it’ll all be better tomorrow
