Interesting events happen today. First I oversleep and get to work 30 minutes late. Then while helping my manager move a big heavy metal door onto a spray rack to be painted, the stupid holding bar slips and hits me on the head. At least the metal spike missed, or i'd probably be dead.
So then after feeling sick and woozy, a nice lady in the office fills out my accident report for me. I probably should have gone to the hospital in an ambulance, but managed to get my scooter there in one piece. Even though my mind wasn't, and still isn't, quite 100% I do remember dreading going to the ER and outing myself to the staff.
So when I get there I get checked in, give my male legal name, and get shown to a room. A few hours later after talking to the doc I get discharged with a concussion and told to take it easy until tomorrow. The doctor and staff were very nice and used my female name when I asked them to. But it wasn't until I got home and looked at my hospital wristband that I made a pleasant discovery. Right next to my name and age, was a big F instead of an M. ;D
That right there made my day, just wish it didn't have to hurt so much to be seen as a woman. ;)
that riht thurr is pure awesomness!
Hahaha, I'm sure that brightened up your day! :D
Awww that would of made me so happy too!
I'm sure something like that would make the day of anybody on here ;D Great way to feel better after getting smacked in the head huh?
Congratulations. Almost makes a bump on the head worth it, doesn't it?

Been there, Angel. It almost makes the trip to the hospital worthwhile.
Ouch! That is a tough way to get an F. Anyone know where there is a heavy door? ;D
Neat story but kinda scary. Hope you feel better. We do find validation in the oddest places sometimes.

*big thumbs up*
That must have made your day. Great folks over there at the ER.
I am still fighting with my "trans friendly" state over the F thing on my documents but I think I will skip your method unless hitting them with large metal doors would work.
And spikes? Where do you work? Assembly for the next Mad Max film?
Glad that you are ok.
:laugh:
That's really funny! I was waiting for the part where you were up studying late and just slept straight through your final exam ... not that, uh, I'd know anything about that ... :embarrassed:

The holding bar has a spike to hold the door while still maximizing area to be sprayed. Its about one inch long and seems even longer when you are looking at it crosseyed. :eusa_pray:
and reading your Subject I thought you were talking an "F" for a grade --- way to go.
lol oucchh!
at least that all made it KINDA worth it huh?
Very cool sign me up to bump my head.
