stuff does happen, it's not all roses and pillows
out there...

i worked at a place that had a manufacturing aspect
and one of the line workers was missing a thumb.

he said he lost it in a cannery. we never talked
about it past that point so i don't know what kind of
cannery it was...

one of the workers up front in the offices was also
missing a finger, but she lost it due to a ring getting
entangled in a swing while pushing a child.
