ok well..... smashed my nose at work. I was putting something on the bottom shelf so I was on one knee, my other foot slipped out from under me some how an I ended up face first into the shelf. I hit the bridge of my nose(the spot right between your eyes) an hit it pretty hard.. hard enough for tears to run down my face. I did that yesterday, an for most of today had a killer headache.

You ever do something dumb at work an end up hurting yourself??

Uh, 3 hernias from 3 different jobs, and a cracked skull from getting hit by a 15 foot long 4x4 beam.

Oh, and got shot with sandbag rounds, tased, and used by a self-defense instructor as a dummy beacuse I can take pain well.

the same thing happen to me...kinda. Worked for walmart at the time, was putting truck away. Which it about 100-200lbs pallets an well I was in the huge fridge an I slipped an fell right on my tailbone, an the pallet bout crushed me, had to stop it with my foot. But anyway, after I fell I felt fine, didnt think to much bout it. About a month later my lower back was killer, my legs an feet hurt so bad it was horrible I couldnt even stand for more then 5 mins with out shooting pain. The pain was so bad, the worse I ever felt this far in life. So I went to the doc got an MRI an found out I have a slip disk in my lower back thanks to Walmart, I never made a report out, I got fired because I had to take about 2 months off for my back. So yeah, I screwed up pretty bad..wish I would have made a report... could have sued or something!

I almost broke my hip while slipping on the job a while back.

I was in Panama making a Christian-themed biopic and I was carrying some fire extinguishers up a dirt hill. It had just rained which had turned the dirt into a thick, clingy mud. As I tried to trudge up the hill with the two fire extinguishers in each hand, something happened and I ended up doing a Home-Alone-ish pratfall right on my left hip. I ended up slowly sliding down the hill and couldn't move for a good couple of minutes.

The WORST part though was that the production company (owned by some rich religious types from somewhere in Oklahoma) ended up dissolving their corporation and transferred all the rights to the film to their NEW corporation. This essentially cleared their slate clean of any financial responsibilities... including that pertaining to the injuries I sustained.

Hmmm....thats why they always tell ya to hit someone inbetween the eyes. Cause if you get a good shot...their eyes tear up and they cant see a thing. Thats when you go for the knockout punch...woop woop!!

If I do anything stupid at work it would be catastrophic. No. I personally take great pains to be very careful because injuries in construction are BAD BAD BAD!
