Ended up with a double post, so I deleted the second one. Which means I've now triple-posted.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I am on hour 3 of orientation and here's what we've done:

- workplace violence
- EAP
- Sexual Harassment

Not even halfway through the slides. I hate everything.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Embarrassing scenario: say you get scratched on your bare leg by a piece of old metal (kind of like thick wire, like you'd make a trellis with). It's definitely a scratch, not a puncture, but it's about 4 inches long and drew blood.

Do you go get a tetanus shot or not?

I am extremely clumsy.

Ann, that's a ferret.

If the metal isn't rusted or anything like that, I wouldn't go to the doctor. But I'm more likely not to see a doctor when I should than the other way around.

Me, too.

Well, it's been outdoors for years, so it's not exactly clean.

That's exactly when you get a tetanus shot if you haven't had one recently. I guess a scratch is more easily cleaned than a puncture so maybe you don't need it but I think it's a good idea.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I personally would not get a tetanus shot for a shallow scratch. Puncture wounds are different and harder to clean and more easily infected.

Clean off the scratch and it should be fine.

Gud made me google and now I'm slightly more depressed than I already was.
