There arent many good teasers out, and this is not one of them. Too obvious and pointless
welll all i can say is it's a teaser i couldn't say good and i wouldn't say bad
so the pin prick in the finger to test for the iron, that's what pushed it over a pint, right? ;)
Two vials are also taken for blood tests. Thanks for the comments and feedback.
i didnt think it was pointless, i thought it was rather adorable. it was my first guess but that is out.
i thought it was a good teaser!!

So you didn't lose a pint of blood, you gave it away.
Easy for me... I go in to our local blood bank and give every 2 months.

i agree.
And how is this a situation teaser?
isn't this the most likely reason for losing a pint of blood at work? It's not like blood just leaves your body through osmosis.
i tend to think of a teaser as something that tricks or is not as it seems. that you might have to "think outside the box for." I'm sorry, it was a nice try, but right in the middle of the box.
