Today, I cut my finger with a knife while cooking. I work in a hospital and have to use hand disinfectant at least every twenty minutes. It hurts badly. I have to work for eight hours. FML

Today, while at my job as a nurse in the ER, someone came in with a hangnail. They threw a fit that they had to wait because we were managing a heart attack, a man with colon cancer and a kid with appendicitis. FML

Today, I finally finished a gruelling shift at the hospital. I hadn't slept in over 30 hours, so I was happy to get out. I was quickly rushed back in after I collapsed in the parking lot and cracked my head open. FML

Today, I cut my finger open with a spoon. After waiting for 4 hours in the emergency room, the doctor told me I was missing too much flesh to qualify for stitches. He then called 2 other doctors in to examine it. Apparently they had a contest for patient with most ridiculous injury. I won. FML

Today, my manager bailed on me during the afternoon rush; swamped and distracted, I cut off the pad of my thumb in a cheese slicer. Some clinic hours later I returned, hungry and sick with blood loss, to sign WC papers. Manager's only words: "You're staying late to cover your long break, right?" FML

I was going to take a stab at a pun, but I was afraid my joke just wasn't going to cut it.

Sorry, I was over here trying to figure out how carving forks can be so dangerous.

Anything can be dangerous when given to an idiot... Haven't you seen the warnings on coffee cups stating that the contents might be hot?

I love that you pulled five carving forks out of FOUR people. Guess that means one patient took an extra dose of stupid pills this morning.

It never said the four patients ate the forks. Just were stuck in them...

5 knives out of 4 people? Are they fighting over the wishbone or something?

4 knives in 5 people would also be interesting, like a shish ka bob (so?).
