Its so hot I feel like Im gunna DIE!!!

Im managing a fireworks store and theyre totally going to combust from the heat 0_o

 

Dont die.

 

Pwnd by guys who put tar on the roof. Though it may be only a slight advantage, working next to fire all day in a hot kitchen is fuckin hot too.

 

Things are getting pretty toasty here..... Well, actually more like wet toast.

 

I have scars on my arms to prove I do know a little about heat. I'm just off this week on vacation. At least they have our A/C working these days.

 

yes!! smoke a joint and jump in the freezing bay water !! mmmmmmm
feels too goods cant stop!!

 

I got burned down to the bone on my left arm, skin graft.

 

i know a guy who got tar splashed back on him loading huge rubber chunks into the melter on one of those highway crack filling crews

another guy i know lost his entire arm right up to the shoulder due to a liquid propane accident..it was technically a freeze but they call it a burn


ive been burned a few times in my life...it always involved friends owing me money for work ive done

 

Well, I just work in a kitchen, so it's not that bad, but all summer my arms are a scarred up mess. Somehow I can never avoid grease splatters

 

yeah.. i have a grease splatter on my hand from over a decade ago.. when i dabbed away the grease.. skin came off.. by far the worst burn i've gotten

 

I am a fry cook and I haven't got much feeling left in the tips of my fingers, temperature wise anyway, so when I'm in a hurry, I will reach directly into a basket that's just been pulled up and I tend to graze my arm along the edges of the basket. I've gotten some really wicked second degrees from that. You'd think I would learn to not do that. And the worst part about getting burned when you work in a kitchen, especially in the summer, is that the heat around you just keeps the burn raging. I can handle that, it's my own dumbass fault it keeps happening, but the scars are so embarrassing. One of my best friends just got married a few weeks ago and we were in some of the wedding photos and my arms are a blotchy blistery mess. lol

Edit- I can't really complain much when I get burned, though. On Christmas Eve, the fiance was working on a friend's car and the radiator cap exploded on his hand and hot water peppered his face and scalp. That was seriously the worst burn I have ever seen, his entire thumb was a horrible blister and his hand was just covered in big nasty bubbles. It was likely the worst pain he's ever experienced in his life and he just took some Tylenol and kept his hand in a bucket of water all night. I had a hydrocodone he could have taken, but he just gritted his teeth and dealt with it until the blisters had formed and the pain subsided. He managed to keep all but one on his thumb from popping, too. He really probably should have gone to a hospital after that, but his hand is fine now with very minimal scarring.
