15,000lb loader vs my work car, loader won.



I was on a different site in town auditing temporary traffic management when my helper rang me to ask about something. He finished saying "You know how well this week is going, it just got better", then told me about it. They had to reverse the loader at least 100' before they ran into the car!
Guess the guy still has a job?

I haven't heard. He probably will if he passed the post incident drug test.

Reaching across someone's plate to get more mashed potatos is dangerous, Tim. Better to ask to pass!   :)

Seriously though, hope you're OK. You're not left-handed, are you?

Hand injuries to any of us using them to make a living suck. Hope it heals quickly.

Update on Tim: He got his left hand (yes he's a lefty) caught in the mast rail of a forklift yesterday afternoon. We are still in the hospital waiting on surgery. They are going to fix up the tip of his ring finger that got smushed like a grape, and amputate the tip of his middle finger back to the first knuckle.

He's holding up pretty good. He hasn't had anything to eat since lunch yesterday because they weren't sure when his surgery would be so he's a little hangry, but overall he's still joking with the nurses and trying to cop a feel with me.

I'll update you all later when we know more. Thanks for all the positive thoughts!
