  1. I couldn’t tell ya how many times I have just threw a piece of rag or paper towel over a bad owie and wrapped it in electrical tape and just cleaned the blood off the floor and kept working.

    • Roger that! A rag!? I shoulda thought of that! Electric tape was the universal “go to” in tree service.

    • I hate it when the blood dripping on my work is messing it up, and it annoys me that I have to stop and tape it up

    • I have used Duct Tape on occasion, but either electrical tape or surgical tape does the job. Usually had a Band-Aid as the substrate so it wouldn’t stick to the wound – that’s my First Aid training kicking in.
      The Duct tape was a special circumstance. It worked splendidly.

  2. Been there, done that. Medical staff in general, but hospital staff in particular, have some kind of God-complex they develop.
    Probably spent 3 hours in the waiting room to be triaged, another 2 sitting in back after they took his BP, and in the end could have sealed it w/ super glue just fine. I bet the hospital still stuck him w/ a 1500-dollar bill, too.
