Thought this might make you all smile a bit, it made lots of us smile when it happened.
When I worked in the lab - many moons ago, we had a glasswasher there who we all thought was a bit of a hypochondriac. She was ALWAYS having time off with her health & then letting drop where she'd been - when she was too ill to be anywhere.
One of the lads in the lab Pete - a right wind up merchant & one hell of a laugh - was complaining & swearing he had 'prostate problems'. OOh said Renee (the lady in question) I've got that too - really bad!
I swear the whole 1,200 factory workforce was informed by Pete that Renee had prostate problems. She had most of them coming up to her & sympathising. I don't think she ever realised what a 'prostate problem' was, as at, every opportunity - due to the sympathy she was getting - she complained of her prostate.

I do wonder if anyone ever told her what it was? - She left to move to Australia a few years later. I wonder what the aussies thought of her problem? I can imagine some of their comments!:D
