What is Sicker...

I see my 'sick' topic generated some interest. I like the fact that Thomas needed more details about how 'hot' the girls are and most surprising is that Roger replied back to the sick topic....I LOVE IT!!

So the question was:

“What is sicker?”

If you are a coroner, would you ever sleep with a dead person? or

If you are a plastic surgeon, would you ever sleep with a patient after you put them to sleep with anesthesia?

Originally, Oscar and I debated this for quite some time. Oscar said the coroner was way sicker. I thought the plastic surgeon was sicker. I didn't think many would agree with me...but I thought it would be more 50-50.

Sunil hit it right on the head on why I also thought the coroner was sicker. For me, the dead person is already dead...no harm no foul. Two, there is that doctor-patient trust factor. Three, I felt as though a moral barrier for a 'live' person was crossed when the doctor takes advantage of a sleeping patient. Hence, the combination of it all is all sicker.

Now, if we take the 'victims' side of it, Oscar and I both agree the sleeping patient is sicker.

Yes, definately sick...but when you eat lunch with the same people all the time, the superficial chit-chat gets boring and then the 'What if' questions start coming out.

and yet for as many years as I've worked for my company, I still haven't had the opportunity to engage in that type of debate...
