mintquartz-38

Not always

livelymartin-33 OP

So today we had an incident where I was alone (thankfully in a hallway so cameras caught the whole thing) and the rest of my team took like 20 mins to show up. A student was honestly beating the shit out of me and also hurting themselves so I performed a proper restraint

mintquartz-38

Wtf

livelymartin-33 OP

And when I called in the nurse team and everything turns out the kid really beat the fuck out of himself and his shoulders were super bruised from hitting himself against railing

mintquartz-38

What'd you do that they beat you up??? Exist probably :/

@livelymartin-33 And when I called in the nurse team and everything turns out the kid really beat the fuck out of hi…

@mintquartz-38 What'd you do that they beat you up??? Exist probably :/
livelymartin-33 OP

Yeah he was having a mental health crisis. The kid was really scared and suicidal and so I don’t blame him

mintquartz-38

What the absolute fuck isthat shot

mintquartz-38

Shit*

mintquartz-38

Ohhhh

mintquartz-38

Okay

mintquartz-38

Thought it was someone that felt better or macho

mintquartz-38

That's sifferent though

mintquartz-38

Is he okay now?

livelymartin-33 OP

Anyway because the kid had marks it had to be completely reviewed and investigated, but thankfully I was in the hallway and seen performing proper technique and they determined the bruises physically could not be from me and concluded it was from the railing

mintquartz-38

Phew, I understand why you were worried

@mintquartz-38 Is he okay now?
livelymartin-33 OP

Yeah we transported him to get mental health treatment

mintquartz-38

It's quite thr hectic situation

mintquartz-38

Hopefully he'll be fine
