Bakery scars
When i was 16/17 I worked part time in a bakery at a major Northern supermarket behemoth (known as Morrisons) on Sundays my role was doughnut boy, which involved dunking trays of dough into a big fat fryer which turned them into doughnuts, the trays would be covered in hot fat, so obviously we had to use gloves to carry them, anyway these gloves ended at the wrist, and so if you weren't careful you'd catch the skin on you wrist with the edge of the trays, so for about 6 month's I had scars up my arm, very similar to the sort of wounds sustained by trying to slit your wrists, yes I got lots of strange looks and yes people did keep asking me if I'd been trying to kill myself.
