I was framing a wall in my house... don't know how, but I shot a nail into my index finger knuckle. The nail gun double shot or something. It just stuck there. I was like "uhhhhh..." I better go to a doctor. I took out the nail, the wound hurt for a couple days... hand was all swolen... saw a doctor, it was all infected... you could even see the circular area where the infection was ------ing It was like the size of a pancake.
Gave me a tetnus shot, some antibiotics, and drew a circle on my hand with a marker... LOL... he says, "if the swelling and redness ------s beyond this line in a day or two, come back" I love that guy. Anyhow, the knuckle has never been the same.

Nothing major here. I used to work as ramp agent in Ca. (the guy with the flashlights in the air) and had a couple back injuries from throwing bags around.


But these days I work at home. I guess anything at my house could be considered a work injury as well. The other night I was having self inflicted sex and I thought I bruised my left nut. It was funny, but it hurt to the point that I thought I may have had to tell the boss about it.

Well not a work accident, but still.

Was burning a hole through a pipe with stick welder at high amps. This really big drop of molten iron fell into my shoe (was a high shoe that extends around the ankles)... Could not get my shoe off till the iron was already cooled down. It gave a nice deep burn path from the top of my ankle to the side of the foot .

Yeah I realize it after I got the $1500 bill, but luckily my car insurance paid for half of it, since I was working "on" the car. The stiches were pointless when they took it off I bent my finger and the wound open right up.

Next time use a impact wrench with a philips bit it works wonders, or if you already fucked it up use a easy out, they call it "easy" for a reason. Those screws must be hardened cause my drill bit just said ---- you when I tried to drill it. These are the ones I use and they work great.

I stabed myself with a nife on my left hand, between my thumb and the next finger in that opening. went in pretty deep, about half an inch, and even some white thing was comnig out, like a tendon or something, I put it back in, found a bandaid and closed the wound. I probably would have needed a few stitches.

The bad thing is that I lost some strength from my hand, when I try to carry something really heavy I can't grip as good, so I'm sure I fucked up a tendon or something.
Oh well I didn't have insurance so I was not about to pay $3,000 on the E.R.
