Dagnabbit, That's Three!

When I am sitting at my desk in my office I am facing away from the door. And so if someone comes into my office I usually turn to the right since the door to the other offices is to the right and behind me.
But the way my desk is set up, I tend to lose track of where my knees are...
And damned if I do not crack my frigging knee on the drawer section nearly every time.
It gets a laugh often, but it hurts like hell, especially considering it's my bad knee that makes the connection.
And dagnabbit! That's three times today! I am going to need a cane!

Is there any way to rearrange your furniture? If not, how about pool noodles to pad the drawer or some kind of baby bumpers? Your knee might not handle too many more bangs and injury.

Who is laughing: you or bystanders? If I banged my knee I wouldn't be laughing. I'd be cursing and maybe screaming.

@porwest Thanks for the clarification. When someone gets hurt we laugh but when it happens to us we are no longer laughing. Why is that?

@lovebuglena My coworkers when I turn, they hear the thud, and I grab my knee and moan.

My toes are attracted to this thing. But, it's the best spot in the house for the elliptical, and keeping it there keeps me from procrastinating.

Ugh I would be upset. It's happened to me before, and I really say a loud curse word! Haha
