• In my experience, when these things happen to a labourer, it's because they are deploying what they optimistically would call initiative and using the tool in a way it clearly wasn't intended to be used.

  • Like joyriding in a 2 ton dumper and wiping out my truck, or trying to shoot down sparrows with a staple gun.....

  • That's the one. Or running themselves over with a scissor lift because they can't be bothered climbing into it to drive it so walk in front of it driving it on the tether.
