I had to replace a GFI outlet in my laundry room tonight. As I'm replacing the outlet, the neutral wire snaps. So downstairs I go to get my wire strippers. Come back upstairs, grip the wire, and begin pulling it towards me. Tough phuquing wire sheath. Not coming off so easily. So I get both hands and pull, and pull, and pull....until..... WHACK!! The wire stripper comes off the wire, comes back, and hits me right above the eye!! I'm in a little pain. No biggie. I pull my hand away.... BLOOD! I look like a boxer with a cut right on my eye lid. 1 inch lower, and you would be calling me "Patch". Now I have to think of a cool story to tell the employees tomorrow. I can't say "Oh, I hit myself with wire strippers!" I'm thinking, I got jumped by 3 guys in the alley?
