I was coming out of our restrooms at work and this lady was at the sink wiping off her toe. She was wearing sandals and smashed her big toe into the wall or something, and her nail split across the center and was bleeding really bad. She was in pain but seemed to be handling it ok, so I left. I found band-aids in our first aid closet so i went back to the bathroom and offered her one. She was headed sort of out the door, as was my boss, so I felt kind of akward and just offered it to her. She thanked me and put it on her foot, but I felt like I had to explain to my boss what I was doing, so I was just like "her toe was bleeding everywhere, ouch" but I feel embarassed now like I got caught. Weird. Anyone ever have this happen?

You did the right thing! You felt like a third wheel is all that happened. You got caught doing what? You were helping a co-worker and you should be praised not embarrassed. I've never had this happen because I was a boss at one time and I'm sorry they made you feel like that. You will be just fine and I'm sure you are one of the productive employees that anyone would love to hire. Good luck.

Got caught doing what? You did a nice thing for someone and NEVER feel bad about that. If your boss doesn't know what was going on just explain, nothing to it. You saw someone was hurting and you where being a nice person....dont question that. :o)

No good deed goes unpunished.
Do not feel embarrassed. Your good deed reputation will precede you.

Don't worry about it. You were trying to help someone. No one can fault you for that.

What? I read your question twice and I still don't get it. What were you embarrassed about?
