title: Bleeding for customer support
description: One time I squeezed a hard disk drive platter that I was using as a coaster while I was on the phone with a customer. It shattered into a thousand pieces inside my palm. Blood started gushing everywhere. I finished the call with the customer while miming to my colleagues that I needed medical attention. A legend was born.
