Pulling off an air filter on a fire pump to find it was flooded with fuel, thought i'd try to see what caused it and got a bit too close, Unleaded has got an awful taste to it. Girl I was talking to at the time still laughs at me for it.

Cutting some heat shrink to cover some wires, slipped with the knife. 12mm long 1mm wide and 3mm deep cut in the side of my finger. My boss found it amusing until it was still bleeding after 30 mins.

Hit my fingers on bench grinders a few times, also gave the side of my hand a go with a flap disk in an angle grinder twice in the one day. Hurt the first time, really hurt the 2nd, same spot both times.

A fair few times have I not tightened up a hydraulic oil line on a loader, fire it up and get a nice spray of oil across the bay.

Forgot to put in the tank plug on a tractor, it took me a while to figure out why it was not filling.
