What a FRIDAY i went through at work!

First half of the day was busy but manageable. I had to sit at the reception so usually when i'm there, i can barely do much work because i'll be walking in and out, in and out. If i'm going in to do something, i ended up getting distracted and do something else until i get back to my place and remembered what was it i was supposed to do initially.

Whatever else i planned to do, didn't happen because sometimes i just sucked at planning.

So the chaotic event happened right when someone rang the door bell. Let him in and all the electricity went off. i was like O___O wtf just happened.

Went inside and found out SOMEONE had a faulty charger (like seriously???)

Everyone else was like woohoo don't need to work anymore, let's go homeeee

I was like DAMNIT my report didn't get save all the way (when i already finished it right b4 the short circuit UGH).

It was dark but then i found out certain lights in the office are emergency lights but it was still dimmed especially in the corridor. SO while my colleague tried to switch back the tripped switch, i was standing by the power switch room by the corrider because i was concerned.

DAMN who knew i had my left hand leaning near the door hinge of the power switch room UNTIL my colleague (THE ONE WITH THE FAULTY CHARGER) let go of the door and seconds later realising that my fingers got caught in between.

WTF SO DAMN PAINFUL!! it was like a slow-motioned pain. my BRAIN couldn't register the pain until seconds later. i was SILENTLY crying out loud (if that makes sense) because i don't want to look like so much in pain (but i was and it was horrible holding it in).

Accused colleague supposed to be concerned but initially he was like WHY YOU PUT YOUR HAND THERE and i was like SERIOUSLY?? (only in my head because he is a scary-looking guy).
And you know how i'm a CRY BABY, the way he said it like he was scolding me!

I headed straight to the pantry to not let anyone see that i was tearing up! Both from the PAIN and him 'scolding' me.

So why is it my fault when i'm the one suffering right then???

I tried calming myself down. Took a tissue paper and wipe my little tears. My other colleague came in to make a drink and i told her about my hand (or 2 of my fragile fingers) and i can't remember when but i was a burst pipe, i started CRYING.

She was like, WHAT HAPPENED and i told her i felt like i was being scolded instead of being consoled.

When the electricity came back on, i checked my saved work and it was 2/3 done thanks to the recovery mode but i wasn't in the right mood, i couldn't think properly. I couldn't type probably either because of my left fingers. I finished my work AGAIN and what do you know!! i closed the wrong file and it wasn't saved yet again. I opened that stupid file again and this time round it was saved 1/3 of the way only. HAD TO REDO IT YET AGAIN.

THE COLLEAGUE WITH THE FAULTY CHARGER came by my area and at least he asked whether i was okay and that was what i needed from him. Most of my colleagues had any idea of this incident other than 2 of them that witnesssed it, 1 that was in the pantry when i explained and 1 that i asked to get ice to treat my fingers just in case.

I had to submit a safety report since it's mandatory and i didn't want to delay it because i would forget most of the detail if i did. I KNOW i didn't discuss with anyone. But why would i go around the office showing my poor fingers, like i would be whining if i do that.

The problem now is because of the safety report that i submitted. i know i wrote it as FINGER-CRUSHING INJURY but i googled it and it seemed to be the more appropriate term i really never thought of it as an EXAGGERATION.

After work, i rushed to get home on the dot even though my work wasn't done but really i wasn't in my right mind to finish anything REALLY. On the way home, my safety officer messaged me feeling concerned. i said i was fine. When i almost reached home, my other colleague called and mentioned about the 'Finger-crushing' injury like he was more concerned why i wrote it as that and not about my stupid fingers!

And just before i wrote this post, my other colleague called. I didn't want to answer, it's probably about the stupid incident anyway. Either she was concerned or just another 'why you write it as finger-crushing injury?'

SERIOUSLY with the late 'concerns'. MY FINGERS ARE FINE ALREADY. Though i will never ever forget that painful feeling and how no one was concerned about it. I cried and one of the temp staff noticed i cried. only she did.

When i finally reached home, i just went straight to my bed and cried. I had so much WHYs. Right after that blackout, things started going wrong for me. WHY ME?

god knows how i'm going to go through with monday when it comes....

we'll see if it's bad. If not, thank god. But if it's exactly like what i expected, i'm getting out of that company i don't care anymore.
