Category: Missing People – Crime

If this is not an April Fool’s news-article – it probably should be. It has been reported on the BBC – but I am not too sure – as it is so relentlessly ridiculous. On the other hand, things like this occur throughout the UK due to cost-cutting, lack of training, privatisation, and a general lack of care and attention. When I was young, and being trained to work on factory equipment, the older man who was training us as teens – told us a story about an inattentive worker who shut his testicles in a drawer. We believed at the time, as most of us were around 16-years old and had only just left home. We were all stood in grey overalls trying to work it all out. Driving a sit-down lawn-mower near a steep drop – or manoeuvring it across a not too strong (and obviously under-pressure) brick-wall holding in tonnes of bone-infested soil, seems to me to be a very stupid thing to do. If the story is true – then it is only by luck that no one was walking down the street at the time. Of course, we used to be sacked for life-endangering stupidity – but in today’s world – the worker is compensated and rewarded. In the old days, the deficient worker would be re-trained and moved away to work somewhere else – where nobody knew him. This is how the workers placated the management and bourgeoisie. I wouldn’t be surprised if this worker was not given his own rural church – and a sit-down mower to drive round all-day to his heart’s content – with a fire-engine and ambulance standing by – just in case!
