Yesterday morning the driver of the car that picked me up accidentally slammed the car door on my hand!
There was a console in between the front seats and when I got into the front passenger seat my coat was tangled underneath me. Most of the cars have a handle attached to the inside of the car roof, but this one didn't. So I reached up and held onto the roof of the car to help me get some leverage to reposition myself. The driver, who is supposed to make sure that you are settled into the seat and all body parts are in the car, and that you have your seat belt on properly before closing the door, didn't bother to do his job and as soon as he saw me inside, slammed the door closed.
It got me partly on the hand and on the middle knuckle. I got to work and applied ice. I had an orientation day yesterday so I kept ice on it for most of the morning. It's bruised, and my middle finger is sore, but at least it's not broken.
