    I worked for less than a week at a cedar shake and shingles mill: it takes trees and cuts them into fat shingles.

    I was promoted when the guy above me put the pneumatic splitter through his hand.

    The guy above my new position near-missed with a band saw: it bit into his arm but only about a millimeter.

    On day three a cut saw operator lost the last joint of three fingers.

    I told the foreman I was leaving. He nodded in understanding.
