One should not underestimate the stupidity of horses, and their unique ability to randomly forget that they've been around flying insects their entire life, FLIP THE gently caress OUT BECAUSE A BEE LANDED ON THEM AND MAJESTICALLY RUN RIGHT OFF A CLIFF.

"Do it or you're fired"

There was a guy here that dropped a saw into the water off a barge and the foreman told him to go get it or find a new job. He was a decent swimmer so he jumped in. Current drug him under the barge and they found him a couple days later.

Was he okay?

Poor Pickles. Thought of bees, freaked the gently caress out, and died.

I killed bees because a small Japanese tourist got thrown from a horse and broke her leg. The horse was spooked by the bees.

Also because I was 16 years old and I was trying to prove myself as a cowboy. For some reason that was important in my smooth brain at that time.

This was 1986 people. Calm down. poo poo got dealt with very differently then, because we weren't aware.

Since then, as a carpenter, I have encountered hives several times. What happens is we locate a local bee keeper and they come and collect them.

It did hurt though. Physically those bees got a little bit of just revenge for our appropriation of their habitat for commercial purposes. It hurt emotionally for me personally because I don't like killing things. I see myself in everything.

I killed a lot of things at that ranch, in mostly very dangerous conditions.

I just thought it was a good story.

Normally I would assume this is sarcasm, this being the internet and SA in particular, but just in case I will clarify that the most reasonable interpretation is that the coworker in question was found dead.

I'm guessing a boulder went bouncing merrily down a hill and managed to wedge itself in there. I wouldn't be surprised if there's a weirder explanation, though, thanks to what I've seen in this thread in the past. :j:

Probably just tail whip. Truck makes (probably a left) turn, trailer pivots on the tandems which swings the rear end over the rock sitting on the shoulder, underride bar snags rock as it moves into the turn. It also looks like the vertical members on the guard kept the rock centered as is was being dragged.

I would put good money on �the shipping yard had a strategically placed boulder to protect their infrastructure from truckers cutting corners�.

This driver is a cut above the rest.

Oooh, that is a rock. At a glance, it looked like a smushed roll of hay, which seemed like minor truckfuckling at best. I mean, at least hay getting wedged under the Mansfield bar seemed less stupid than it being a loving boulder.

If your hay is scraping lines in asphalt you have problems.

slight OSHA, at least something interesting I encountered on the job site:

Here is a bee nest that scared the living gently caress out of a coworker, when he made the cut that revealed it:

'twas sweet

Bees were found and identified as wild honey bees back in August, we left the spar for months until the bees peaced out...im sure they found another dead rear end tree around that neighborhood.

I�m glad you didn�t burn them to death.

Fun facts: Schneider chose orange for their trucks because hunting is a big part of Wisconsin culture, and the hunters wear blaze orange for safety. It was meant to emphasis the safety culture of the company.

So this is extra funny because of that to me.
