I stapled my finger

I’m a moron. I stapled my finger at work today.

It’s one of those things that if I’d seen a child or even a teenager do, I’d think, Silly youngster, when you’re older, you’ll know from experience not to do such things. But today I was a silly youngster. I was stapling a piece of paper to a small board. For some strange reason, I thought it was a good idea to put my hand behind the other side of the board to hold it still while I stapled it. You guessed it—the staple went right through the board and punctured my finger.

It hurt like hell. I’m officially a moron and a silly youngster. I’m glad we have bandages and medical cream at work.
