Mines the same way, and I too am scared of inaccurate readings.

Case and point, I changed my oil a couple weeks ago. I put in 5 quarts. The dipstick showed I was at "Max." [&:] I checked it a couple of days ago and somehow managed to bend my dipstick up even more, but the oil still reads full so I don't know whats up.
