How blonde am I?
May. 28th, 2007 11:26 amSo yes in answer to the question above...yesterday I was very blonde. Though I have to say that I did have help from my employer. I worked 16 hours at the plant yesterday.
My supervisor hands me a pair of white meshlike gloves. She says we're supposed to use them when we pull fire extinguishers. Fine. I put them on, and yes they do make it less hard on the hands when you are lifting extinguishers. I notice however in the back of my brain, these are a little slick. So I'm on my way getting the ones that need to be rehydro'd and I get the one from the kitchen. Its gotta weigh 30 pounds since its full. I'm lifting it to put it into the cart, and that thing I said earlier that worried me? Out slides the extingusher from my gloved hands, hits my knee slides down my shin and bounces off my foot. Clang! I curse under my breath in several languages and limp over to get it, cause Ow. I have lovely bruises.
How glad am I that we wear steel toes in our boots? 'Cause thats what it bounced off of.
Saved me from a broken foot.
I am however bruised from tip to tail from yesterday. Blah. More later.
Word of the day: kers
