:barf02:A hearing aid? All I can say is ewww. :barf01::barf01:

I could handle a hearing aide, even if lubed up with cerumen.... but anybody drop a loogie-infested kleenex of indeterminate origin, and I'm looking at 30 days lockdown!!! :eek:

I had a maintenance guy come to my office when I was teaching CNA classes, and ask me if I needed any dentures to teach the classes how to take care of them.... OK, sure- I'm game :) I asked where he got them.... they were snaked out of a toilet. Hence the ready availability of perfectly intact choppers. :uhoh3: Enter bleach :)

As a child I was terrorized by my older brother throwing his 'snot bombs ' at me. I learned to dodge and duck at a young age LoL.

Oh, that would SO qualify for the hand in warm water trick at the first opportunity :D And if it didn't work, just pour it on him and let him think he "leaked" :D

I just threw them out in the dumpster before I even walked in the door. I said no way in hell is it worth cleaning these.

I once stepped into a bedpan of LGIB. Slipper socks with disposable shoe covers over them did the trick. There was no way in heck I could wear those shoes and into the hospital hazardous waste they went.
