Cracked 3 Bones

Well I had a shitty day for the 4th. Was at work in the morning in the backroom. I usually do the bulk backstocking which is bigger things that don't get put onto the floor when we get shipments on the truck days. Was backing up the walk-behind forklift we use which is electric and somehow smashed my left foot between the forklift and a steel support beam.

Cracked the 3 bones that are connected to my toes, and bent one. Luckily after it happened I just eased myself down and laid down, so nothing was out of place meaning no surgery. The biggest bummer about this is that I can't drive the laser at all until this shit heals. That also means no autocrosses.

It could've been a lot worse, and was very lucky that it wasn't my ankle or any major foot bones. I got one pic, but it's not that good. I'll upload it in a while.

Re: Cracked 3 Bones

They're treating it really well. They're covering all the medical bills, and giving me the full pay I would be getting for the next two weeks. I have to go see the clinic this week and then I'll find out for sure how long I'll be out of order and what will be done about work mans compensation after the two weeks.

I feel a lot better than I did Friday, so I'm hoping this will heal up fast and I can go back to doing what I love instead of watching crappy TV shows.


BTW: I looked at the pic and you can't see anything so it's not even worth it to post. I want to get a copy of the accident from the security camera's at work. Then I can actually laugh about it. lol
