It was a work related injury.
My guys at the parts counter were trying to be nice to a transient that asked if he could get a cup of coffee. The problem was that someone was servicing the machine at the time so he started to get impatient and agitated.
He then starts to get loud and vulgar so the guys go find me to let me know what’s up. I then walk up to the customer waiting area and ask the dude what’s up. He points over to the coffee machine and complains that the guy working on the machine is taking too long. I look at him and tell him that he had to be patient or come back later. He loses it and starts yelling and cussing. That’s when I “kindly “ ask him to leave.
As he’s fumbling for the door he throws a cookie that he had grabbed off the counter at me, then a napkin.
He sees that I’m coming for him so he bolts out the door with me walking after him. At the parking lot he tries to pick up a heavy post to fling in my direction but realizes it’s too heavy so he throws it in my direction.
I kicked the Sh!t out of the post to show him I wasn’t scared...
And that your honor, is the reason I got the boo boo on my toe...
The nail turned black and when I went to the clinic, they took xrays to make sure it wasn’t broken. Then the doc burned a hole in the nail to get the blood out.
Moral of the story. Maybe buy steel toed Doc Martins
