And you thought your first day at work sucked
 

This poor nineteen year old kid begged for a job, shows up, and dies in a horrible wood chipper accident his first day.

Teen Killed When He was Pulled Into Wood Chipper On First Day of Work - Inside Edition

That sucks.

well, he desperately needed money and now he doesn't so.. success?

A 19 year old subcontractor working with 2 employees?

Kicking a piece of tree limb into a wood chipper -- what could go wrong?

And?

The other employees were experienced, what's the problem? 19 is old enough to be entrusted with far more difficult tasks.

Well, actually no it's not.

Before you operate any work machinery you need to do a Health & Safety analysis as laid out by the HSE or the specific organisation within your country.
Then you need to do risk assessments and any person(s) using such machinery should be fully trained in their use.

Bet ya the toxicology reports come out

Maybe you should read the article before opening your noise maker.

Can you just explain here. I am not good at reading news articles.

May he rest in pieces.

Sure it says and I quote #EADC

Yeah I bet that rarely gets done.

My cousin was 5 years old when he got his foot caught in a grain auger and was killed. What a way to go. I imagine you are conscious for at least several seconds as you get sucked in.

Interesting question to ponder...the mind boggles at the thought of such a death...it must surly be similar to experiencing man's most primal fear of being eaten alive which, although rarely happens certainly we carry in our psyches into the modern world.

The kid was NOT a "subcontractor"

Someone was trying to bypass responsibility/taxes/insurance of an employee.

The owner of the company is going to be crucified by OSHA and lawyers.

That's horrific :Oh crap

Fuck that would suck
