    Thought someone had died at their desk at work today.

    Found them unresponsive slumped over their desk and had to call ambos.

    Worked out okay in the end but jeebus what a day!!!

    Never a dull moment at this job

        Yeah I’m all good. Glad he is too. Scared the shit out of us for a bit.

        Ambos and 000 were so good.

      hugs, hope it all worked out fine and you’re ok too. It can be quite distressing to be a first responder.

        Yeah first responder stuff is never easy.

        Worked out okay for the guy. But was awful when we couldn’t wake him up.

        Gentle night of self-care is on the cards after that

      Terrifying, but you handled it well! You are amazing; you deserve to chill and self-care. Sending you good vibes 💜 💜 💜

      Yikes! Glad everything was ok in the end. That must have been harrowing when you could t wake him up.

      You deserve a self care night tonight.

      Well done champ.

      Oh god that must have been awful for everyone involved. Are you able to talk to a pro if you need to? Maybe consider taking Fri off for a long weekend to decompress. Hope all’s well for your colleague and the rest of the team too.
