"I worked for and executive car and limo service in NYC. I was working with a guy who was obsessed with the pro wrestler Rick Flair. It was a Saturday, late afternoon, and we had gotten busy. I was busy taking the orders on the phone when he yells over to me to give a driver out of town directions to pick up a client. I told him nicely that I had many phones on hold and for him to do it himself. He got huffy with me and came over to where I was and got right in to my face. I stood up and he grabbed me. He was a little smaller than I was, but he was in to body building and was strong. He picked me up and body slammed me down on the floor. On the way down I tried to brace for the impact and I wound up with a dislocated big toe on the right foot. I had the police and EMS there and was transported to a hospital where my toe was reset back into place. I could not walk on it for about a week. I was told not to go back to work for at least three weeks. Well, when I called to let them know I was going to be back I was told not only was I fired but I was replaced by a computer and the other guy still had his job and was there until about a year ago."
