I must share this conversation from a recent meeting. The meeting was to
promote farm accident awareness. The speaking Doctor chose one of his
patients from the audience and beckoned him to come forward.
"Tell us what happened to you Mr. Jones" said the Doctor.
" Well, Andrew was bringing me the small trees and I was putting them through
the saw when I slipped".
"And lost your fingers!"
"Yep"
"Did you use a pusher for the trees?"
"Nope"
"Did you wear protective clothing?"
"Nope"
"Did you use a safety guard?"
"Nope"
"Have you learnt from this experience?"
"Yep"
"Will this accident happen again?"
"Nope"
"What precautions have you taken to ensure that this won't happen again Mr.
Jones?"
"I take the trees to Andrew and he pushes them through the saw"
