In my very first go at doing stand-up comedy, I had a whole routine about the kinds of people who abuse reflexive pronouns (mainly recruitment consultants, reps, and The Apprentice candidates) “How’s yourself” etc.
My punchline: the correct use back at them is “You can go fuck yourself”

My mate Roy and I. He was my mentor for six solid years. He retired last year, and I left that job 2.5 years ago.
We still see each other socially despite living counties apart. Such was the bond of camaraderie at that place.

Hands down, no question, she should get the X-Rays. In a company with 1200 staff, her employer shouldn't have left her as a single point of failure.
Someone else can do the payroll, only SHE can do the X-Rays.
