An Australian government staffer is suing her employer after a glass light fixture fell on her face in a motel during a business trip.

The government's workplace safety body rejected the woman's claim because she was having sex when the light came tumbling down, and sex, unlike showering, sleeping or eating, is not "an ordinary incident of an overnight stay," nor is it necessary.


The woman's lawyer begged to differ, saying sex was "an ordinary incident of life," one that's rather common in motel rooms at night. He added there was no rule barring employees from having visitors in their rooms during business trips.

In her workers' compensation claim, the woman cited injuries to her nose, mouth and tooth, as well as a psychological "adjustment disorder" after the light fell from the wall above her bed midway through sex.

In his unfortunate statement, her paramour said they were "going hard."

"I do not know if we bump the light or it just fell off," he offered.

The woman said she's entitled to compensation because her injuries were sustained "during the course of her employment."

The federal government had shipped her to a small country town the night before an early morning meeting.

Does she deserve compensation?

@poster
the pastor didnt MAKE YOU break up with her, YOU broke up with her when you decided that what this "criminal in a robe" says is more important than what you think.

GO COMPLAIN TO HIM AND ASK HIM TO FIND YOU A GF!!!!!!

I agree. LMAO at the bolded.

I agree. Good point

she is not into you. Free her

OP sorry about your sister

dump the broad

The best things in life happen to us when we least expect it. I know you are not ready but you will come around. She needs you.

On the light side, consider it a privilege that he considers the kids really HIS own kids, and you have the honor of being called their mother.

Its normal for wife's to be referred to as their kid's mother. For example if your kid's names are Jo Ja, you will be called by Mama Jo (usually the first born but not always). It is done as a sign of respect and recognision of your role in the family. It is also normal to call the husband Papa Jo,or Baba Jo etc. It is usually a Yoruba thing but not limited to the Yoruba culture. Nothing to it, you are just overreacting. It does not diminish who you are in his life. I only knew my parents names by official documents not by what people around call them ie Baba and Mama "insert my real name here"
On the age thing, ask him. Age is nothing but a number.

The responses here are out of this world

^^^^ Nope, she gave it to the other guy

old time joke.

It's over. Tell her straight and let her walk. Don't give her any attention and ignore your folks when they talk about her.

No he doesn't want you again. He just doesn't have the courage to tell you to your face. Since he came to town without telling you, he probably isnt even interested in sex with you either. Usually means there is another girl involved. Srry.

You want more?

@deniyor. So i should not accept him back right?

It's your call. When it comes to love and feelings, people usually do the irrational and stuupid thing. I said it wouldn't be ideal to take him back. From my own experience, people hardly change really. I took a lady back once, but she left again eventually shattering my heart to pieces then. The thing is we always want to believe the best in the people we love. My advice is don't take him back but it's your call.

Not worth it. What will he do if he finds someone else? Leave you again? He is not reliable and hence not ideal.

Of course no harm in painting yourself as an opportunistic gold digging bit*h either. No harm in portraying yourself as a cheap gal.
If you must eat frog, eat one with eggs. If you prefer to gold dig, at least start with rent, shopping etc not some cheap phone bill.

[color=#550077]How does the post not related to the thread?afterall i gave a scenario, these people don't see to understand plain english & lack the ability to understand the relationship between the thread title & contents.

Well like i said they r not in a relationship but getting close, the friend had known the sister prior & sister & brother are sort of close.

It's true you can never know with brother & sisters.[/color]

It is related to the thread. I didn't say it wasn't. Don't take this the wrong way but your initial post is quite ambigious. Thats why I advised you to re-word your initial post. Sentences get too long and confusing on who is being referred to sometimes.

Pweety4me:
[color=#550077]Is it a good idea to involve siblings in relationship matters?

Even when you knew one before or through the other?

Like a lady who's friends with a sister & through the sister the friend meets the brother, and the brother has a thing for the friend.

_{It's funny how i can't really apply the same thing for guys, there always seems to be an issue with guy friends & their sisters}

So somewhere along the line the sister's friend & brother become close but not so much in a 'relationship' but a growing friendship, the sister's friend tries not to make complaints to the sister but just has to sometimes as she feels there is no other option, and that's the only way she can get her point across to the guy without being aggravated or engaging in an argument.

What do you guys think?been in this situation before?[/color]

Deniyor it's not about intelligence but opinons my dear.

Actually this is not about opinions, it a matter of[b] interpretation [/b] of facts, opinions and whats written.

depends on what she really needs it for, my perception of her xter, and if I have the money. If I had the money, and it is a real emergency. I will loan her the money. Even if I can afford it and if we date or not, I expect her to pay it back as it shows her integrity.
