Once upon a time I beat up and assaulted a lady... While I was at work
I worked for years for an agency that helped Newcomers to Canada (refugees and immigrants) settle in my city. We had employment related classes, English classes, counsellors, everything.
One day I was covering reception and had a very important message to pass on to one of the ESL teachers. I saw her pass the door on her way down a long and winding hallway to her classroom. I jumped out of my chair and darted across the room in my high heels, my arms pumping like crazy as I ran.
Unfortunately, in my haste, I ran out of the door without looking to see if anyone else was coming down the hallway. I managed to punch one of the Russian ESL students. Twice. Then whilst saying "I'm so sorry" over and over I accidentally grabbed her boob to steady her from falling over.
She didn't understand anything that I was saying and just looked appropriately horrified. And I shame-facedly scurried back to my desk without delivering the message that caused me to run like an idiot in the work place.
