Yes, that's exactly the same as someone calling 911 when a finger gets chopped off.

It got mangled in an incident at work.

The finger's fine though.

Good luck suing someone for calling 911 for an amputated fingat.

The coworker also called the US agriculture inspector.

"By contacting the inspector instead of their supervisor, the worker both prolonged the time for a sterilization of the equipment and allowed more food to be contaminated, which directly resulted in increase losses for the company. Further, by allowing these increased losses they made the problem appear more serious than it was - there is no contamination issues with normal operation and there are no institutional failings - which caused reputational harm to the company and the supervisors. The correct response, which was company policy and the former employee was aware of, is to contact their supervisor and inform them (verbally only) that they had a concern that there might have been contamination which was likely below the FDA approved levels for human consumption" is what the lawyer would say.

They were a whistle blower. There is no way in hell they were going to get away with tattling on a corporation without at least some form of lawsuit to defend

Shoulds just bought one of those folding ladders that pop out when you open an attic.

They should have built a dumb waiter. They clearly don't have the necessary skills to build an actual working dumb waiter but I would have enjoyed seeing the results anyway.

if i'm ever rich i would want a dungeon but i could never actually build one because people would think it was a creepy sex dungeon and i'd always be all "no, it's just a normal dungeon with skeletons" but nobody would believe me.

And an ejector seat. In the event of an accident he'll be thrown clear to safety.

He should really have a high vis jacket though.

I'm still confused as to why he didn't angle the stairs so they pointed down to the left so there'd be room

I feel like that was the plan but he built the steps first and measured the hole later

I really can't wait for when it's time to sell the house

So, uh, this is the ladder stair case

It goes down to the tv

That's in a Dun-

Nope, there's a wall to the left on the upper story too. It's just a dumb plan all around.

Looking at the top right part of the photo, it looks like there's a wall meeting the floor, so if the stairs went that way you would be walking up into a wall.

On the left side of the hole is a fireplace. At the top side a solid wall. On the right side a glass door. And the hole can't be any larger or it would be blocking the door to the outside.

As for getting stuff in and out, the death stair is not the main entrance. The basement (root cellar?) has a door to the outside, but a while after he finished his TV dungeon he realized it's really inconvenient to go outside and walk around the house every time you want to get a drink or take a piss. Shocking. So he half-assed this ladder to provide internal access.

As for selling the house, just don't call it a dungeon. Call it a man cave.

So dropping a pre-fab spiral staircase was the correct answer here.
