[QUOTE="aarondhgraham, post: 4165382, member: 13337"] In the USAF you couldn't wear jewelry if you worked on electronics,,, We were told that we even had to remove our dog-tags,,, A lot of married men bitched about wedding rings. I never paid much attention to the rule,,, After all, I was 19 and supremely invincible. Then I worked as a base photographer while waiting for an AFSC reassignment,,, I had to photograph a man whose wedding ring and wrist watch,,, Had melted through the skin down to his bone. I never wore my ring again,,, Still don't wear jewelry of any kind. I also photographed a man who jumped out of a parked C-130 cargo bay,,, His wedding ring caught on a rivet head and severed his finger,,, Well, not really severed as he hung by a foot of tendon,,, Until one of his buddies cut it with a knife. Brrrr,,, I get shivers just remembering it. I've worked around electricity and shop tools in general all my life,,, My ex-wife was pissed that I refused to wear a ring,,, I offered to get a ring tattooed on if she wanted,,, Thankfully, she turned my offer down.
