As good as neon

I was carrying a microwave down the gang plank last night when I smashed my knuckles on one of the safety rope poles. The wound is on my knuckle so it won't heal and kept opening up. They have strict rules at work about bleeding on clients so all day long I had this bandage on it. It was as good as having a neon sign on my hand saying "Asking me what dumb thing I did to my hand?" I think every client and building staff person asked.
