My brother Dave saw Orthopaedic
Surgeon on Monday and has been booked into hospital next Wednesday for
Arthroscopy on knee to remove torn cartilage from his knee then he will be off
work for 10 days then he has to go back see the doctor and find out if he is
fit for work again……………..
Speaking about Dave while out
shopping with mum this morning she told me that last week when she was at Big W
she was chatting to a member of staff who told her that Dave was her hero that
he came to her defence when she was being bullied by a customer.
According to mum the woman was on
the service desk when a man came into to return something and wanted his money
back but for some reason he couldn’t get his money back…………….I know if you
don’t have your docket they will not give you your money back but may give
you’re a store gift card instead………………..Anyway this man became very irate and
threating because she was unable to give him his money back the woman said she
would call the manager who is another women, well as my brother has been on
light duties he has been working in the office and was there when the manager
got the call to go to the service desk so she asked Dave if he would go with
her and he did.
So Dave and the manager go to the
service desk and the man was still yelling and acting in an intimidating manner
which got worse when the manage said that no he couldn’t get his money back he
tried to get into the woman’s face but Dave pushed her aside and stood between
the man and her so he got right up in Dave’s face yelling and swearing and
threating to hit him…………..Dave calmly said stop saying it and do it when Dave
wouldn’t back down and showed he wasn’t intimidated by the man he backed down
and stormed out of the store…………………
The women kept saying to mum that
Dave was so awesome and brave and amazing for standing up to the man, this
doesn’t come as a surprise to me or really any of Dave’s sisters we have always
know our brother is awesome…………be it annoying but awesome…………..
He's a brave guy, that's for sure. Good for him!
ReplyDeleteYes he is..........
DeleteHow cool to have a brother who is willing to do something like that to help someone else who is in need. I can see why you think he is the best thing ever. :-)
ReplyDeleteThat is just the way he is and I am proud to be his sister
DeleteI hate it when customers try to bully you. Your brother is amazing to get involved in such a horrible situation
ReplyDeleteI hate bullies and so does my brother
DeleteDearest Jo-Anne,
ReplyDeleteOh, I admire him for his bravery!!! Looks so happy with father♪♪♪
Hope you and him are feeling well!
Lots of love and hugs from sis-city in Japan, xoxo Miyako*
Thank you he doesn't like to see someone bulling a girl/woman
DeleteThats lovely that he was willing to do that :). You probably find him annoying with him being the youngest but also your used to all female company due to your sisters, mum and daughters (I know there is Tim and your Dad but its a different kind of relationship).
ReplyDeleteYes he is annoying because he is the only boy he has always got special treatment but we all love him even if he is bloody annoying.......lol
DeleteThat is very kind of your brother to stand up against a bully. Good for him!!!
ReplyDeleteHe doesn't like to see men trying to intimadate females......
DeleteGood for Dave! The best way to handle a bully is to stand up to him. Too bad no one did it to that guy before they let him escape from the playground.
ReplyDeleteDave doesn't back down ever and he hates to see men bulling girls
DeleteI hope your brothers surgery goes well. My grandmother has had two knee replacements so I know anything dealing with the knee probably won't be fun. I hope he heals quickly!
ReplyDeleteI also hope all goes well for him today he is a bit nervous about the opp as it is the first opperation he has had
