So my question to the OT is how often do you donate and what's your motivation?

I'm O negative, a universal donor, so they ask me to donate as often as I can.

I'll probably regret this, but I'll ask anyway. Why do they actually take the blood and what do they do with it?

For the free XL t-shirts and snacks.

Sometimes when I'm working in the shop I cut myself.

Do I not bleed?


Motivation:
When I think about it, I touch myself.

Last time I tried to donate blood was at OLOL. Guy stuck a needle into a tendon he went so deep. Pinky went numb. They didn't get more than a test baggy of blood.

Ended up having to be admitted because they let absolute idiots draw blood.

Quick DYK:

Did you know that George Bush, himself, drove up on the levi in New Orleans during Katrina and planted a bomb there?

Wow, that sounds like a horrible experience. The lady in the bus for OLOL today was quick, friendly, and knew what she was doing. Hit or miss I guess

4 times a year. I've seen instances where a little extra couldn't hurt.

I used to give blood until the blood banks became worse than telemarketers.

Average about every 3 months. I'm real bad about not doing it every 8 weeks.

I have O negative and I'm negative on some enzyme or something so babies needing blood have to have that type.

I'll start donating blood when they start paying me for it like plasma.

Used to do it 2-3 times per year since I have O-. Can't remember when I last did it.
