    HAHAHA so yesterday while I was working my butt off at the restaurant I have a bunch of food I need to expedite and direct it all out of the kitchen I then realize dang, we have to more clean steak knives so I run talk to the chef grab about 25 of them run back to my area and start unwrapping them out of the plastic as fast as I can an opps, about 20 knives down, Instead of pulling the plastic wrapping off I accidentally grabbed the handle of one of the knives and sawed a good sized laceration on my right index finger hahaha ouch!!!!! took about 20 min to stop the bleeding, any one want some pics?? ;D

    Lol, I think I am good on the pics for this one. :) I worked for Cracker Barrel for about 7 years before joining the Army. I can't tell you how many times I cut myself with a knife. Brings back some old memories lol.

Today i didnt cut myself...but i got scratched ALOT today haha! i have yet to get stitches (but thats prob because i wont go to a DR. unless im dying lol, example last weekend when my lungs were filled with pneumonia goodness!) but yea please no pics lol! Hope you heal quickly and keep the hand outta the tank til it is healed!!

    ROFL that was funny :D, yeah I'm hoping this thing heals up quickly, Doc said I can't run any more food till the stitches come out, which makes sense but it still irritating

    Hey, your equation doesn't balance out.
    It should read steak knives + finger + careless = stitches. ;D

    I read that and instantly smiled at the thought of my 3am trip to the ER for stitched due to an emergency replumb of my tank. I used a carving knife to cut tubing and my finger.
