    Default Fractured my hand at work

    I fell and fractred my hand, and I also dislocated my two wrist bones. Went to ER and now I'm in a splint/cast type of thing. Its my right one, of course. It happened at work, I was coming down the steps from the champ room and lost my balance and fell right onto my hand. It hurt like a motherfucker! And now I might not be able to work, and its race week.

    It sucks that its my right hand. I can't do much at all w my left. And it really hurts today. If it feels better tomorrow I will go in and maybe take this brace off for a little while. Its supposed to stay on for at least five days.

    I'd still work. You can still walk, you just can't use your hand. You might not do as well as you usually do during race week but making some money is better then making no money, right?

    You should still go to work. Hell, wear the cast and tell custies that you injured yourself while executing a very complicated LD maneuver in the CR. LOL

    I don't think I've ever worked with a girl wearing a cast, but I think you could definitely try it and play the sympathy card!

    I would get dances from you anyway, but even moreso if you had a cast and played the sympathy card I hope you feel better!

    You poor thing. I worked with a girl that had her hand in a cast for awhile, and I've worked with other girls that had their hands in braces- honestly they did fine, and I think they did get some sympathy from customers. If it is going to be a busy week at your club, maybe you can try going in and see how you do.

    I'm going to try it tomorrow night. As long as I can get my hair and makeup on I'll be fine. But its really hard to do things lefthanded, I'm discovering.

    you can always wear armwarmers too, they might cover it up a bit not sure how thick the cast is.

    When I danced we had a girl who was in a car accident and had a cast on. She couldn't walk really fast or perform spectacular on stage but she made good money. I think people notice and appreciate hard work and going the extra mile.
