Chopped finger
The guy tinting my windows was halfway done when he chopped the tip of his index finger completely off with his razor tool. OUCH!
He was a tough guy about it, he taped up his stub with shipping tape (to get it watertight) and finished the job!! He cancelled the rest of his appointments, but I feel bad he chopped his finger tinting my car.

Did he let you keep the severed tip? You could hang it from your rearview mirror. What a great conversation starter that would be.

Maybe he'll drop it in his Wendy's chili and file a lawsuit.

I just did the same thing. My hand slipped off the filter and my index finger knuckle hit the cat.
