Elderly beat down

first of all, I think our society underestimates the sheer strength of the elderly population. When given the right motive and opportunity, the over 65 population can give a pretty mean a** whoopin. I was officially jumped by a 66 year old lady at work yesterday. Some of you may know that I am currently working at an emergent psychiatric center, so needless to say this lady was a little nuts. While she may have protrayed herself as a kindly frail old lady, she was actually a deceptively strong and somewhat vicious woman on the prowl. With my back turned this older woman lept from the shadows and pounced upon me. In my horror and fear of hurting her, I froze under the attack. As the woman pushed me and pulled at my clothes our tussell was seen by the lingering staff members. They rushed to my aid and managed to pry the crazy old bat off of me. It wasn't until the woman was pulled away and pinned to the ground that I realized I had received a beat down from an old timer. It has been the antisocial psychotic men that I have been weary of since the start of the rotation, I now know it to be the sly elderly folks who pose the greatest threat. The moral being, don't underestimate the slightly aged members of our society.
