  • Yep but not too long ago I was trying to cut something in half by hammering it and I was hitting too hard and fast that my hand went through the wood and ripped off a pretty decent chunk of skin that connects the finger to the nail smh

  • Many times it’s annoying and hurts like hell.

  • In my job (Audio/Video Integrator), I run a lot of cables, often in construction environments (new homes or remodels), mount TVs, and sometimes make or modify custom mounts and other things. I do a lot of work with both hand tools and power tools, and I crawl in attics and under houses. Of COURSE I've done that, among many other minor injuries, many times. LOL. It's rare that I don't have some fairly fresh cut, scrape, or bruise somewhere. That just comes with the territory.
