Not to pile it on, but my dad died tonight. Over two years ago he was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer, but it was still rough. He told me to "shine" just before he died. I'm not in a great place right now.

Thanks for the support everyone. It's been a tough week. On top of all of it, the shitty place I work at offers no grievance pay of any kind. I used to work at a hotel, spending the day making beds and vacuuming and cleaning up really disgusting messes, and even they gave me three days grievance pay when my grandfather died. Plus, with my hand in the shape it's in, I can't even take a commission to make up for it. It's kind of the last straw for me as far as motivation goes to get a new job.

Anyway, didn't mean to derail this thread so much, just wanted to let you guys know I appreciate it. Hopefully this hand heals quickly so I can get back to doing this to get my mind off of things.
