    That shop took a lot of shortcuts on safety. I had to pull a dude out of a mill to prevent a 2" drill going into his head because he tripped into it. Never again will I standby as I put my own hands at risk for efficiency over safety.

      A while back, a friend of a friend of mine, all of us ended up together at some nerd type convention…

      He’d beeen degloved.

      But, miraculously, they surgeons and doctors had managed to … put the glove back on… and while he did have problems with certain motions and sensations… his hand pretty much worked normally, and I didn’t even see anything out of the ordinary wrong with his hand for hours… it just came up in conversation that that jad happened to him, and I was shocked.

      Yeah I didn’t see it happen, but just thinking about industrial accidents… fucking oof.

      Yeah, safety rules are written in blood, they’re there for a reason.

      I’ve got PTSD for… non industrial accident reasons, but I absolutely sympathize with having to see something that horrific first hand.

      RIP to the departed.
