Common Sense
My doctor prescribed me a muscle relaxant. As he handed me the prescription, he gave me an intense warning to NOT DRIVE while taking this medication.
I get the damn thing home, and I' m supposed to take it 3 times a day.
THREE TIMES A DAY?
AND NOT DRIVE?
Am I to take 3 unpaid weeks off of work, since I can't DRIVE THERE?
He didn't say anything about not working.
So then I thought...so it's OK for me to take this medication 3 times a day, wherein I will be so loopy I can't drive a car, yet I can go to work and care for children with disabilities???
Riighhhht.
I guess I'm not taking the muscle relaxant!
