Ok, not the most happy thing, but it's rather funny to me. So I work with knives at work. Big ones. Probably about a good 8-10 inches long. I've been working there for about 9 months now. I have a glove for my left had that protects it from being cut. I wore that for maybe the first two weeks before deciding I'd be fine without it. And so, months passed and I never really cut myself. Until tonight that is.
I was cutting a rather tought part of the roast beef. I usually get through it sooner or later, usually without much of any danger happening. This time however, I went to hard through it and came right to my thumb. Luckly the nail was there to catch some of the brunt, but I still struck through some skin.
Then, maybe not more than a half hour or so later, I come back to this tough cut of meat. I remember that it is tough, but I figure it won't do any harm, again. Nonetheless, there she comes, right back into my left hand. But this time for my left pointer finger knuckle. So, I finish cutting this lady's beef, see the cut and am quite surprised. I'm about to walk away, but I pick the untensils back up and give the lady her meat. Then I proceed to walk away to find a bandage.
Luckily the managers weren't in the office at the time, so I got to walk around trying to find a supervisor to get me one. Finally I found one, and was given some minor first aid as a bandage and something akin to a finger condem, minus the contraception part.
So yeah. I'm happy that I've finally been brought back to reality and shown that yes, I can and do still bleed hemoglobins. I'm unhappy however that if I put too much pressure on the finger it begins to bleed again. Hopefully it will heal soon.
