What's your worst work-related injury?!


Question: Mine involved an exacto-knife and the tip of my thumb. It's true, your finger tips DO grow back (thankfully!), but really, really slowly. Anyone have a freaky story?

Not as bad as back breaking . . . but how's this one . . .

While working as a receptionist (in a boring, accounting firm) I was taking the coffee pots to the bathroom to clean them at the end of the day. I stacked one on top of the other and I spilled 2 twelve cup coffee pitchers (full) of scalding water all over my chest. I was pulling my sweater off as I went down the hallway and ran into my boss.

2nd and 3rd degree burns and a week off work recouping, permanent scarring on my chest.

My **** goes numb a lot from sitting at my desk all day.

I was shot down in Laos and had my back broken in 2 places. It took nearly a year of therapy and some surgery to get me to where I am today.... how does that rate with your cut finger?

Well it wasn't me but a patient that I saw. He worked at the stockyards and a cow knocked him down and stomped oh his scrotum! It totally destroryed one testicle and severly damaged the other. I still can't eat donut holes.
