High pain tolerance with this is borderline dangerous
I once went on a tech support visit to someone's bosses office, finished what I was doing, left, and the guy escorting me told me my hand was bleeding the entire time.
I am absolutely that oblivious, i didn't even know what I nicked myself on, didn't even feel it
I've had cuts I didn't know about, but the worst was when I worked retail and managed to smash my upper arm on a shelf, and apparently I was bleeding bad enough to leave a broken trail from the front of the store to the break room.
I couldn't feel anything but the aching of the blunt force trauma, I didn't feel the sharp cut or any stinging at all.
I've also had plenty of small spots I have no idea how they happened, but usually I'M the one to figure it out...
...ooof. I have a high pain tolerance as well... Totally get this. A lot of things breeze off, then I wonder why I'm suddenly bruised, or my toe is broken.
I had this while working the other week. Only in my break I noticed my hand was bleeding…
