So Ya Had A Bad Day?
Not me, Jesse. Poor guy sometimes has the world's worst luck. Yesterday was one of those unlucky days. The day started off fine-just like any other. Then later that afternoon he had two major calamaties. First of all, he was on a lift fixing a leak in one of the pipes they had installed for the fire sprinklers. He was tightening a bolt on the pipe when, BAM, it exploded everywhere. As soon as that happened a pipe broke and he was instantly drenched with water. Not just a little water a huge gush. He was 10 feet in the air and couldn't breathe at all, not even a little bit. He started to panic a little and finally was able to get the lift down and get some oxygen. Now he could breathe, but was soaking wet and FREEZING the rest of the day. (The water in the pipes isn't exactly warm, ya know.) Then, right after. He was on the lift again going up when it hit one of the trusses (he says this always happens when you have to go up that high). Anyway, his pipe wrench was hanging off the side and when he ducked his head to miss the truss, the force of the lift hitting the truss made the wrench fly up and hit him in the face. He was all swollen and soar. So now he was wet and soar to boot. He went to the doctor that night and they told him that since his injury included his eye socket, he needed a CT scan to make sure there was no internal bleeding. Long story short (too late), he has a broken nose but no other major problems. I think his nose looks a little crooked, but he thinks I'm nuts. I would've posted a picture, but there was NO way he was going to allow that to happen. I guess things may seem bad, but they could always be worse...
