I broke the tip of my right ring finger yesterday at work. Smashed it between the fan shroud and the frame of a vent fan while putting it back into the compartment on the engine. Starting monday I go on a modified duty 8-4 shift behind a desk. UGH!

If you got to break a finger you should have done the one next to it. I had light duty once and hated it

Update:

I went to see the doc on tuesday and with a STRONG persuasion (I didn't realy threaten him, just suggested a few options) he released me back to regular duty. WAHOO. The digit is still a little sore and the nail is trying to come off now. Thanks for all the well wishes.
