...and the festering, purulent infection you're going to have because you refused to stay in the hospital after slicing open your wrist when a sheet of glass fell on it.
Dude, you are a contractor. Your worksite was filthy--your coworkers attested to it. You cut up your wrist so bad that you can't move your thumb. There was a nice little piece of white tendon sticking out of the cut. The surgeon told you he wouldn't be able to operate for a few days--because he wants to make sure you don't have an infection in there. Which means you need to stay in the hospital so we can give you IV antibiotics and make sure you don't have an infection in there. "I'll keep it clean and come back on Monday!" is not a good option. You use your hands for a living. You messed up your dominant hand.
Signing out AMA so you can watch the Superbowl with your buddies? Probably not the smartest thing ever.

Yeesh... that's stupid.
It's not like there aren't TV in every ER room, ya know? That's what those of us with insurance have to pay for. lol
Wow. Stupidity at its finest.
Trauma Junkie, the ER I was in last year had no TV. It didn't really have rooms, either, though. Now I'm thinking I was ripped off ;)
Ya can't cure stupid.
