Does anyone else get bruises all over their legs and arms from working this job? I'm peppered with dime-sized bruises, presumably from resting my arms against the cart sometimes while pushing it and resting totes against my legs when putting them away.

Trying to figure out if this is just a part of the job or if something's wrong with me.

ETA: I'm playfully "shaming" my fellow bridesmaids for not being 100% put-together in the dress department, since I found it amusing two people had very visible issues with their dresses.

I was recently a bridesmaid in a wedding where it became glaringly apparent that attention to detail wasn't a strong suit for some:

1. A bridesmaid hemmed her own dress because she couldn't get it professionally altered in time. This wouldn't be a problem if she hadn't just cut the dress across and had tatters of chiffon trailing everywhere. Several guests asked her "omg what happened??", to which she had to sheepishly respond, "I did." The tatters are very visible in the professional photos from the day.
2. The maid of honor didn't get her dress hemmed at all. We found this out while everyone was getting ready an hour and a half before the ceremony, when her dress was pooling on the ground and trailing behind her. The bridesmaid mentioned in point 1 offered to hem her dress on the spot. Given her previous handiwork, we opted to safety pin it instead.
3. Bridesmaid from point 1 also bought the dress in one shade lighter than everyone else's. Luckily, it wasn't super obvious the day of or in photos, but the difference was definitely there!

It was a beautiful wedding and the bride was super chill about everything, but mannnn were there choices made lol
