well, not exactly. But I did end up with a pretty good gash in my head earlier. Can't seem to get the bleeding to stop.
I was bending over to plug in the band saw and smacked my head on a "thingy" sticking out of our thermoforming machine. I think it's where an air compressor hose plugs in, not sure. Haven't gone back out to see exactly what caused the damage yet.
After it happened I rubbed my head and was like "DAMN that hurt" then I turn around and see the look on my boss' face as blood flows down my head, nose, and into the floor. Got cleaned up and don't think I need stitches (although he keeps offering to get his needle and pliers if I change my mind).
Have one helluva headache though. Smacked it pretty much in the center of my forehead about 1/2" into the hair line.
Now I'm all whiny too.

They should tape pictures of semis all over the place. Then you'd steer clear.

Pin a note to your shirt that says to rush you to the doctor if found unconcious.
Or you could actually go see one before that happens.

I knew a man that happened to back in the 70's and all his hair fell out. Seriously, we called him "Kojak." He was really a cop, too. As bald as a cue ball.
Ya may wanna start shopping for wigs.

Is it still bleeding? You only have 8 hours after the injury to get stitches.

Don't get it stitched up in the PV hospital. Drive to Alaska or BF Egypt first.

yeah, EXACTLY why I didn't wanna go.
the bleeding has stopped for now. I should live. Gonna see how I feel in the morning (I'm sure it'll be UBER sore, but hopefully I won't have to visit the doc)

It's ok today. Just REALLY REALLY sore.
Make sure you've got a current tetanus shot. Glad to help (I didn't see this yesterday).

Another handy tip. Don't search on google pictures for head wound.
I'm still shaking.
