Ooops
I called in sick once to work around the house. Sliced open 3 of my fingers on the table saw, guess I was psychic.

Was it a kickback or did you put your fingers on the blade? I cut the tip of my index finger off, put it on the blade. They sewed it back on

Knowing you’re a man of faith I agree with Myrna.

Had a roustabout that called in sick several times a month
Every year at the start of deer season he would have a family member pass and needed 3 days off.
Always gave it to him.
Never was sure how many siblings he had but was at least 6???
Very good hand when he was there.

In 1970 I was working for a company in Denver Colorado when my grandmother died and I asked for time off to go to her funeral. The boss said ok and bring back prof of death. I did and gave him my 2 weeks notice. Got a better job with more thrust and money.
Yeah I hate being called a liar.
But when I was in high school I called my cousins high school impersonating his father and said- This is Jeff _____ father, please have him in front of the school in 15 minutes—his grandmother died.
When I pulled up in front of his school he was there. I opened the car door, he jumped in and asked “Grandma died?”
Heck no! I answered “you’ve got the day off!!

Kick back from what I remember. Right hand was pushing and the left hand was holding what was cut already down on the table.
The blade was up above the piece of wood just enough to make the cut, but still managed to open up 3 finger tips when it pulled the board back I was holding down.
Took about 20 seconds for pain to kick in and off to the hospital I went. They pulled the skin together, stitched and bandaged and went to work the next day and I said : see I told you I was sick.

The work day ended at 3 in the afternoon, so by the end of my 2 week notice I had a new job.

You were doing the right thing. Maybe you should have used a push stick.
I remember that my finger didn’t hurt either. I was devastated about losing my finger but was relieved when the Dr said he could sew it back on.
