Strange things happen. I had a friend who tended to stretch tales. One
day he told me that his mother had found a finger in a can of tomatoes
that had been canned locally. My brother worked in a grocery store
about three blocks from their house and told me about her returning the
can with the finger in it. Not long after that I met a girl at school
who had worked in that cannery that summer and one of the girls on her
line lost a finger. When Glen told me about the finger I didn't really
believe him, but two people reinforced it.

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.

Had a neighbor who said she used to work for a frozen food company. I won't
give the name as I can't verify if it's true. She said a dead bird was found
in a batch of something.
