Worst day at work.

  Top of Page

Whats the worst thing you've seen or done while at work?
Here's a few of my expirence's.

Was Helping unload a truck one morning, we finnished and climbed down of the the trailer.
How ever, one guy had be standing on top of the trailer, passing things over the side. He decided it would be a good idea to Hurdle the trailer (It must have been 10ft to the ground, so i dont know what he was thinking.) Well no, he didnt break his legs, when he  jumped over the side he put his hand on the railing, when he did this his wedding ring hooked on a ropetie. As he went over, the ring took all the skin from his first nuckle onwards completly off, exposing the bone, comic style.

Another time, i didnt wittness the event, but heared the racket very soon after.
A welder at work, managed to arch his wedding ring out on the steel bench. which he had the earth attached to. This made the ring get extremely hot, white hot infact, which burt it back to the bone. Obviously it had to be Amputated.

Im sure i have a few more, just need to remember them big_smile.

So, whats your stories?

Hahaha this is golden not really brutal as such but definetley funny..
I was labouring on a building site about two years ago...
I had only just got into the building industry and we were working on some rich-a%$ apartments in Toorak..
Anyway long story short they had cut into the floor of the third level to run some cables through.. I was asked to clean out the area where they had been working...
So I started working thats when I came to the hole..

I had no idea it was just Gyprock ceiling underneath and with a good jump and steel capped boots proceeded straight through the finished ceiling...
I only just managed to grab the floor to keep myself from falling to the lower level..

Hahaha that is when I had to show my boss my handywork...
Needless to say he was pissed...

With all those wedding ring-related injuries i'd blame it on karma...or their wives putting some witch-like spell on them.

He would want to be pissed, how much would it have cost him if you hand broken your back?

Honestly I wouldnt have a clue.... probably enoguh for a new Liberty lol:blush2:
I was more worried about losing my job then injuring myself....

Haha and a few weeks ago I got my dodgy knee squashed by about ten sheets of blueboard or "cement sheeting"..
At least I havent cut anything off.... yet.....

However Im joining the defence force soon so stay tuned to this thread and there just might be a "worst day at work for Pilot73" ie; shooting myself in the foot or something dumb like that lol

worst day at work... going in to service a bathroom. saw a soup-like liquid with noodles in the sink and proceeded to poke it down. half way down i heard someone vomiting in the bedroom, which then clicked with my head.

almost finished, then the husband comes in to chat. i'm trying to respond but all i can do is dry retch. i was mad because three steps to the right is a toilet the woman could've chundered in.

didn't even get a tip for my services.

Sheesh.

Where do I start?






I don't heave often. I mean, I have Iron Guts when it comes to blood and guts. You need to be in my field. I see it everyday, without a flinch.

I mean, in my field, I see lots of sick and injured people. Many people in circumstances that they're obviously not wanting to be.... people at what you think are "in their worst".

But every now and again, we'll get someone, who pushes the boundaries. Someone who exceeds the threshold of pain, discomfort, and sheer "WHAT THE FCUK" factor. Usually, its people like this, who aren't in their right mind. People who usually have waited well and truly beyond of what you and I would consider "reality".






stay tuned. more after i go and get a beer.

Ive done a similar thing with my old Falcon burning the inside of my arm on the Extractors, i just needed to get something down there, funny thing was it didnt really hurt, it was more shock and then that burning skin smell and it let off a bit of smoke 2 i had a mark there which looked like a birth mark for about 2 weeks:|
