What does everyone keep their used needles in when they’re out and about?
Just had the worst experience of a needle falling out of its case, the cap fell off and I went to get keys out of my bag while in Tesco, stuck myself with it, reacted and it flew somewhere near the self check out. Had to ask a member of staff to look with me and it seemed to have vanished! We looked for ages! She told me to go and that she’d warn the cleaners and keep looking. I feel awful! So much that I called them when I got home but they didn’t seem to care. Has anyone had any experiences like this? Stressing about other shoppers even though it’s a tiny needle, it is used
