Accidents Happen
It wasn't supposed to be like that.
I closed the drawer. Poured the tokens into the machine... the bag filled... during the squat at which time I had to change change the bag the top drawer opened... I turned and bang... the back of my head made contact with the drawer... not hard enough that I saw stars... or fell over... which is saying something being as I was squatting at the time... but hard enough that I said... "Damn... That sucked!!!" and I shut the drawer and finished what I was doing.
Being the good worker bee that I am... I reported the incident to my supervisor. Was sent to "medical", filled out the appropriate WSIB forms and have had a lovely headache ever since. Oh... and the nurse gave me advil... not the really good... Halloween Candy for pain Advil that I have... but advil nonetheless...
It didn't really help.
My head still hurts.
Moral: drawers that open on their own... need to be avoided... at all costs.
