Accident Prone

So today at work my supervisor and I decided to start tackling the mess in our medroom to get ready for our corporate nurse to come to our facility in a couple weeks. Part of this entitles wasting meds which are PRN's and not been used in the past 60 days, any expired or discontinued meds. Since we had a resident pass away recently we had a lot of meds to waste. It turned into about a 3 hour ordeal and right in the middle of it I got a huge paper cut from one of the bubble packs right under the finger nail on my right thumb. killer kind of paper cuts and quite possibly the worst ever! not wanting to take the time to bandage myself up, I put a glove over it and continued on with what I was doing. Finally we were close to being finished so I took some time to clean up my wound that was surprisingly bleeding more than a normal papercut. Right after I put bandaides on I reached into my pocket and slice! yet another papercut on my right hand pointer finger, under the fingernail again. I couldn't believe it! two under the fingernail papercuts in the same day right next to each other. Pretty ridiculous and it just proves how accident prone I can be.
