Disadvantage
BaldRob:
This has happened to me several times...
Standing up to quick (without thinking of whats above you) and either cutting or bruising your scalp with no way to hide it!
Yeti:
I used to get nicks and bruises etc. back in my Correctional Officer days, and still due in some Bodyguard situations, but I just look at it as battle wounds... (this also works for the "turned around and hit an open cupboard door ...as well lol) :D
Tyler:
Yeah, this is a disadvantage for sure! I hit my head getting into my car the other day and thought I was going to have a huge bruise for sure...luckily it never showed...I was thinking of excuses the whole way to work as to why I had a bruise on my dome.
PigPen:
I have that same problem. Working in the car service business has been even more hazardous to my dome. Standing under a car, the guys will often warn me to watch out for hot exhaust and things. Especially the shorter techs. I stand about 6'2". I've hit my head on the lifts too, that doesn't feel very good at all.
happyharry:
Aye, that bumping thing is definitely a problem, especially with tall guys like myself (6'5").
It usually happens to me when I'm in a bus: I'm usually carefull when entering a bus (always bend a little to avoid contact with the ceiling). But after a 2hr trip, and being happy that I've arrived at my final destination, I always kind of forget that the ceiling is so low (or that I'm so tall) and I stand up abruptly and bump my precious bald head on the ceiling, or I walk down the corridor and my head touches the ceiling and you get a lot of friction there...ouch!
