If you haven’t already, you should probably be taking to a lawyer. Somebody fucked up and almost killed you. They have insurance for that.
Rant
A place where you can rant to your heart's content.
Rules :
- Follow all of Lemmy code of conduct.
- Be respectful to others, even if they're the subject of your rant. Realize that you can be angry at someone without denigrating them.
- Keep it on Topic. Memes about ranting are allowed for now, but will be banned if they start to become more prevalent than actual rants.
My bestie is a lawyer. I'm not talking to anyone until I talk to her.
Edit: She referred me to a personal injury lawyer

Oh, so she's a real lawyer; one who knows about specialties.

Sounds like that hospital bill is gonna get taken care of for you, and I don't think you're gonna need to worry about having time to play video games while you recover from being nearly manslaughtered. I'm glad you're still with us, bud!
"Electrocuted" specifically involves death, so in extreme, annoying pedantry, if you lived to tell the tale, technically you were only shocked and not electrocuted
Damn I'm surprised your hand is fucked, that really sucks! I've taken both 120V and 240V across the hand but was lucky with no serious injuries. Electricity is a dice roll.
That's a shocker
Ty for clarification

I was going to say this, but when he mentioned the ER, I figured it was close enough.
This correction is shockingly out of line.
Start taking pictures of all the damages before it heals and get a lawyer.
Weird timing but see this post Games that I can play with one hand
Thanks! I dug out my old left handed gamepad and I'm playing FFXI with it. Using a mouse is tough.
That’s shocking.
OP’s still amped from their hospital visit and you’re making puns?
This guy gets injured in his own ohm and you want him to resist the urge to pun?
Glad you're ok and glad you're lawyering up. I can't give you practical advice but I can say there are plenty of games out there suitable for one hand and even just one button. Vampire Survivors got me through some difficult days when I couldn't spare a hand! Find yourself a distraction until you get better, and hopefully very very rich.
