Why I wear gloves...

[hitnrun]

Now, I normally always wear my Hatch gloves when dealing with dirtbags. Sometimes, it gets SO hot out, that if I take them off, the sweat on them will shrink the glove and make it impossible to put on. So, I just leave them on.

Last night, while hunting for my lunch, I take my gloves off in order to get to my wallet and all that jazz. I pulled into Carolina's (good 24hr mexi joint) and saw a bum stagger toward my car. I watch with disinterest until he breaks a 40oz. on my push bumper! Just like something out of a movie, he swings the bottle upside down and SMASH! I calmly get out of my car and approach the drunken turd in an attempt to educate him about disorderly conduct, vandalism, and interrupting my GOD DAMN MEAL! I make the grab for him and he falls plumb down on my car bumper. He really should've watched his step. Darned gravity and alcohol don't mix I guess. ;) I am in a half *** struggle to get the guy cuffed without getting cooties all over myself when all of the sudden I see blood. Lots of blood. I think to myself, damn, he must have really tripped and then cut himself on all the nice jagged pieces of glass now laying around the front of my car.

Sure enough, my partner arrives and immediately points out the profuse amounts of blood on my palm. I look down and start freeking out! There was a 4" Jack The Ripper Gash up and down my palm. I might as well have just been shot! I thought for sure I was gonna get Gonno-herpe-hepa-syphilitis or whatever else from that cootie infested turd burglar. Well, Fire comes out and tells me to sack up, it ain't that bad. I tell them to shove it and give me a Whinnie the Pooh bandaid.

I honestly thought it would be worse and require a full transplant from my right elbow down, but I guess I overreacted a bit. It doesn't need stitches, so I don't need to worry about that. I did get a random assortment of antibiotics, but nothing else. Anyways, here is the picture of the one time blood oozing glass shard inflicted wound I got, all in the name of, JUSTICE, (and my burrito which I never got BTW)! :mad:

And here it is...

BTW, I KNEW there was a reason I always wore those damn gloves. $%&#!

Ya, I gotta go to a follow up appt. in an hour or so.....dirty rat bastard bum anyways. It was just glass, but I guess in the hands of the right person, glass and cooties can be just as deadly as HIV and a point.

[w1zard]

Alright hitnrun, you just made me hungry for burittos, guess what my lunch is going to be? :D

[DolphinTattoos]

Owwie, glad it wasn't any worse. You just made my hand wound look like a sliver.

Good luck on your appt.

hope it all goes well,, if this helps you, about 3 yrs ago, *i was still an officer* i stopped a terd, i had just taken off my gloves a few minutes earlier and hadnt put them back on. well long story short,, i got stuck by a used needle. had blood and meth in the chamber of it, he was hep c positive, it stuck and cut me pretty good. but 3 months later is was unofficially ruled clear of contacting any and all crud. but i was told at the hospital that it takes one year to make it offical. anyway, that year came and went and i was still good.
OFFICER SAFETY in case none of you have run across this before, my above account happened because the terd had made a small cut where the zipper is attached to his coat. he then put two used needles in the waist band of his coat. he had bent the needles 90 degrees. when i patted him down, it poked me on the palm, i then jerked my hand back and got cut. after he was assisted off the ground, and i asked him about it, he just grinned, and said "it worked" OFFICER SAFETY

Dang gtb, That guy pisses me off just hearing about him. :mad:

[Old Trooper]

What about the poor bastard bum???? You bled all over him, so think how he feels!!! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
;) Nice post, bro

[Jynkxxie]

Oh ****. That looks like your cat got the best of ya. ;)


Keep'm covered! :D

[Switchback]

That sucks! That is exactly why I wear protection... and gloves too!



On a serious note, make sure that it is documented. I even filled out a CA1 when I was spit on.. just to cover yourself for any future illnesses (read as "cooties") that may stem from the incident.
