Work Mishaps

[Sniper]

Hey Guys and Gals

Heck, its been a while since a posted. I hate hospitals :no: but I dont want to go into why I was there.

Heres something interesting that happened to me at work last monday. Not everyday you can get a "drive through service". Surprisingly enough this guy still has his job and is causing trouble stil?? :nono:

The bumper of the car ended up 1 meter away from my work mate and a large bit of wood from the bench collected me in the leg.

Check it out

holy fuk!! that never happens in real life - only in movies and on America's Most Funny Home Movies..

Lucky the driver wasn't doing a few extra k's.. Were you there at your desk when it happened? Lucky no one was hurt, huh?

Good to see ya back too.. been murder holding the fort while you've been gone! Hope you're healin well dude ;)

[zadok]

Ye gads! Must have given you quite a shock. Hope the leg is ok. :doctor:

[duckman]

It's your fault ..... I don't see a single "No Parking" sign !!! :motu:

[vifferman]

I didn't see you (or Biff, Dangerous, Manuboy [where's he got to?] or any of the other Christchurch crowd) when I was there last week. Not that I would've recognised you if I did...:weird:
I did see another biker, who said he'd check out KiwiBiker, but he doesn't seem to have registered yet. :confused:
No, it wasn't me that drove into Sniper's work - we had Moby Dick, and I think it was a different rental company.

Manuboy has been to busy setting fire to his house to come out and play

Of course if you'd bothered to let us know you where coming we all probabaly would had a total attack of apathy and not met up anyway :whistle:

Thats quite impressive parking there sniper, so was the guy charged with any offence? or wasn't it reported

[Sniper]

Kickaha, no the lucky bugger wasnt even fired. Although he is on very thin ice at the mo

Hi Sniper - nice to see you back :Punk:

Excellent "welcome back" post, glad you're ok!

We're just going through the lengthy exercise at work of writing up our safety policies and procedures.
I don't think we've looked at the procedure for a car coming through the wall. If it happened I suppose that OSH would do us for not taking all practicable steps to minimise harm......
Please pardon my cynicism *sigh*

[justsomeguy]

...bloody cage drivers....:no: .....:whistle:

[Flyingpony]

You're very lucky there.
So was the coffee machine.

Tell us more.
Can't say I know where abouts in the city those photo's are taken.

Was the driver wanting to drop some rubbish in the wheelie bin but missed?
Driver doing donuts in the car park?

[Coyote]

Great to see ya back Sniper :niceone:

[myvice]

So? We have people drive into our work place every day!
Probaly cant fire him as you dont have an OSH "warning! Dont drive through this wall" sticker.

Hard for someone to pay the bill when he no longer works for the company involved

Well the story goes as follows......

Rex (my workmate) and I were chatting at our desks cause there was absolutly nothing to do. In fact the conversation was revolving around about how to make our monday more exciting. We both turned around when we heard what it sounded like a bomb going off (I just thought it was something falling down) and a rumble and next thing we knew a 2002 Green Toyota corrolla came bursting through the wall. (It does look like the movies where bits of wood and things fly around).

The car had the go through a bench covered in baby seats, through a gib wall and the only thing that stopped it hitting Rex at his desk was 2 babyseats lodged under the front of the car had lifted the front wheels up.

He had a alot of gib hit him and I had a huge bit of joinery clobber me (still have the bruise). We are still cleaning up the mess at the moment cause the radiator was punctured so you can imagine the mes of water and gib dust on a carpet. The total damaged to the car came to $7165 and thats not including building materials for the wall which Rex and I had to re-build (I hope we dont get a building inspector in here) but the lucky bugger still has his job.

Well I thought the move to Christchurch would be a welcome change in scenery involving a desk job and minor driving around job but so far I have learned how to build and put up gib, how to cut up a baby seat that was stuck under the car and taught myself self-restraint from not strangeling the bugger after he didnt help a bit in the clean up!

So the moral of the story is to be careful what you wish for. But seeing as you're obviously so successful at it, could you wish for my bank account to suddenly be in credit by approximately $1,000,000. I'll give you 10% for your trouble. Thanks in advance.

Least ya coulda sat down and had a quiet coffee to let the heartrate return to normal levels.

So........................ How did the guy drive through that wall from your own garages? Was he trying to rark it up?

[Sniper]

He was an arsehole. "Aparently" his foot got stuck on the accelerator pedal.
