A simple mind is a terrible thing to waste...Sun Stroke?
With all hard work my fellow safety coordinators are doing I thought it
was time for a bit of safety humor to make your day......the following is
a true report from one of our southern area garage employees. Feel free to
use it as an "ice breaker" during your upcoming safety presentations. I
guess it qualifies as a "near miss" incident.
===============================
The fleet employee and his wife were doing some shopping during the
weekend. When they pulled into the shopping center they noted an older
woman sitting in her car and leaning her head on her hand and arm that was
propped up on the open window. They didn't think much about it until they
came back from doing their shopping a couple of hours later and saw the
same lady still there in the same position. Noting that the weather was
quite hot and concerned that there might be something wrong with the lady
they walked over to her and asked her if she was OK. The lady replied that
she was NOT ok....she had been SHOT in a drive by shooting.
The employee asked his wife to go call 911 and started to find out what
first aid, etc. might be appropriate. He asked where the woman was wounded
and she repled in the back of her head. The employee noted that there was
no broken window glass but did notice several bags of groceries on the
floor. Upon opening the rear door he discovered that one of the bags of
groceries had the side "blown out". He then discovered a ruptured package
of Pillsbury muffins.
Upon further investigation he determined that the Pillsbury muffin box had
popped from the heat and the uncooked dough had struck the woman on the
back of the head. The woman thought that the pop was a gun going off and
when she reached up to the back of her head to see what struck her, felt
the uncooked muffin dough. She thought that the dough was her brains
coming out and was trying to hold them in with her hand!
