Greek Gods are assholes · 9:10pm Jun 22nd, 2016
Sot today i cut off about 1/5 of my left thumbs nail. Bitch was bleeding all over the place, and desinfecting it stung like a motherfucker. I think the greek gods are not pleased with my story, and are out to sabotage my hands...
Hope ur alright
4041597 I've had worse, but my hands are starting to look pretty fucked up ^^
.... you've had worse?
Um... there is a slight chance you're doing something wrong with yourself. Slight.
4041678 yeah like that one time i cut off about half of my left index finger's tip, and now instead of a fingerprind, it's just this smooth surface.
Or the time I cut into my left middle finger, straight through, about 1.5cm (0.59inches) from the tip, got no feeling on the side which was cut(it grew back together).
I'm a chef, everyday I'm surrounded by fucken knifes and other shit. it happens, and every chef will be able to tell you a horror story or two.
Like my sous chef, he lost grip on a big piece of meat, which fell down in this huge pan with copiuous amount of oil in it. Of course it splashed back and he protected himself with his left arm. whole thing got 3rd degree burns, he appearently even saw his bone at the elbow ^^

Sounds worse than it is, may also have exaggarated this one a bit, because it's still fresh, and hurts everytime i apply pressure to my thumb. That shit's sensitive.
4041855 To be fair, the two times I did cut off a bit of my finger they were kitchen accidents...

Being a chef sounds much more horrifying than I thought it was...

just a reminder then.
4041904 haha, that fucking claw thing get's brainwashed into you until you can't not do it :D Problem is if you get careless, knifes are sharp after all, and accidents happen if you don't pay attention!
4041883 meh, every job has it's dangers ^^
greek gods like to seek more active punishment then indirect one, they would have probably skin and drip you in lemon juice rather than make you cut your finger.
Jesus! Quit playing with your tools and focus on quality instead of speed. I work with dull blades and use my hand as a cutting board, pull the knife towards me, and have managed to receive fewer injuries. Granted, I'm not a chef and have a smaller repitiore of things I make with onions, celery, carrots, squash, peppers, and potatoes, but the last time I got more than a papercut handling a knife was when I was 16 years old... and my father wouldn't let me handle anything more complicated than a butter knife until I was at least 10 years of age. He even kept the knives in the master bedroom because he was afraid my sister would castrate his ass. Granted, I did enjoy sticking the butter knives in the toaster, but it was for science... Really, it's not as dangerous as you'd think. Still, it's probably safer than what I assume you're doing with the knives. You'd be surprised at what you can do with a butter knife besides use it as a chisel or screwdriver. I liked throwing them at fence posts, more entertaining than jump rope. You don't wan'na know what I can do with a pair of safety scissors.
