I'm hurting...

Today was NOT a fun day at work. Thanks to my co-worker who shall remain nameless totally caused a incident to occur with one of the residents at work (he is about 6ft1 and weighs 240 lbs - not a small guy. Thanks to him we have 4 holes in our walls at the group home). They were yelling and name calling back and forth with each other. Finally I told my co-worker to go home. So she did. Then I had to get all the other residents safe (3 in wheelchairs and one able bodied) out the back door and loaded into the van as they were safer in there. But as one of the guys (in wheelchair and weighs 80lbs) was getting loading onto the ramp to go in the van the other guy punched him in the back twice and was going at him for more, so I put my body completely over the wheelchair where I then got punched 3 times in the back of the neck and twice in the back before he backed off. I was able to load the last guy into the van, locked all the doors and called 9-1-1. So 4 cruisers came, and pretty much did NOTHING. They wouldn't arrest him b/c the courts would just find him not responsible for their actions. blah blah blah. Although he has been arrested before for assault. ah well. They just kept telling him he was a "bad boy". Yeah he was. Now take him to jail. When the police asked him what he wanted them to do he would say "take my to jail". That's what he wanted. So now I am so sore, I can barely move my neck, my back is sore. I am freakin scared to go back into work tonight. My anxiety has been down for a while that I have not needed to take any of anxiety medication. But I did today! And I don't want to go back!

but want to know what really pisses me off? Was that I called my managers cell phone, it rang 4 times and the got the machine. I left a msg asked her to call back for advice on what to do with the police. I called her at home, left a message, got the "emergancy pager" to talk to another manager on call no one called back, I called main office to talk to some one there - no luck. Then as I was leaving I tried my manager back again on her cell and I got the answering machine on the first ring (meaning she turned it off) and her message was changed to that she is on vacation for 2 weeks. But she didn't have the decency to call me at work first. She obviously got my message! I really could have used SOME backup/advice.
