We'll not really. Not as bad as Paul. Not even as bad as Blackcats foot. I went in and had a total hip replacement on Tuesday. Back home Wednesday afternoon. I was Able to RUN upstairs 2 years ago. Lately it was slow walking with a bad limp. My left femur socket just wore out. After 61 years. 30 years of aggressive racquetball, other sports. Working on darn office equipment for 40 years has taken it's toll. All in all I feel real good. I love modern medicine. Will be off for another week or so. Not bad . So I had the doctor give me the top of my femur. I,m going to make a bowl of soup and eat myself. LOL. I,m going to become a canaBill. Take care folks.

Re: Life sucks . II
One of our customers is the local agent for artificial hips and one day let me have a look in their show room. You would think that these replacements would just come in small, medium and large and left and right but, no, there's hundreds of variations. I was most impressed with the engineering that went into these titanium marvels and some of them were so intricately machined they would qualify as a work of art.At least 50% of IT is a solution looking for a problem.Comment

Re: Life sucks . II
Will you need physical therapy? My guess is no, since you haven't been off it for more than a few hours. It's the lying there for weeks that stiffens up the joints.
Everyone I talk to says these joint replacements are much less painful than the old worn out joint, thusly they move much better.
Congratulations! =^..^=If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

Re: Life sucks . II
Wow really....
I'll bet all of the copier techs beg on their knees or beat each other up to get to that service call first....
I use to service the copier at the Hospital Venereal Disease clinic section. I have a general habit of making small talk while I'm servicing machines, an out of habit I ask the nurse on duty "have you's been busy" ? I had a strange urge sweep over me, an immediately said to the nurse "don't answer that,what ever you do I don't want to know....." eeeewh.....
She just laughed out loud and walked off.....Inauguration to the "AI cancel-culture" fraternity 1997...

Re: Life sucks . II
Years of having to kneel or squat on the floor to work on copiers takes its toll on the body. For me it is mostly lower legs and feet. Standing back up gets harder every year. And then you have to get the blood back to circulating in the legs. Fully recover quickly.Comment

Re: Life sucks . II
Glad your doing fine Mrbill, my next door neighbour had a double replacement after years of pain which was so bad that after the op didn't ask for any pain meds, compared to the pain before the op afterwards was a breeze for them.The impossible is easy - miracles take a little longer

Re: Life sucks . II
Hope you have a speedy recovery. I know the reasons you stated, but let's be real. You wore out you hip putting you foot up somebodies ass one too many times.
Hey, you think your surgery was painful, I had a complete wife replacement done. Took over 2 years and was very painful and even more expensive.The greatest enemy of knowledge isn't ignorance, it is the illusion of knowledge. Stephen HawkingComment

Re: Life sucks . II
Okay you got me. I have to confess, I'm not really a boob man. I'm more of a body shape man. I like to see average to well shaped women dress in firm fit jeans....hmmm... It just leaves something for the imagination. My wife fits this category very nicely.....
You've caught me out..... How's that for true appreciation...
