Mississippi Bullfrog Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 @rennie that's a horrible thing to happen. It must be grim for you at any time and worse when you know the person involved. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rennie Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Good Morning , cheers all! I'm ok, waiting to hear if I've got to go in tonight or not. don't really know many details of what/how/why it happened. probably shouldn't be talking about it on an open forum anyway Last time (about 2001 I think) I got interviewed at The Police Station under caution then ended up giving evidence at the inquest. I'm hopeful that won't happen this time. He was mid 50's with a family and used to come to work on a tatty old Bandit 1200. I spoke to him most mornings as he was always 1 of the first to arrive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fozzie Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Sounds pretty awful all round. And I know it's the least of problems right now, but hope it doesn't put you out of pocket with Christmas coming up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I spoke to him most mornings as he was always 1 of the first to arrive @rennieyou was not at work at the time of the incident, so you probably won't be asked to give a statement, etc, but it still is not an easy time for you. In 1979 I was a machine setter on lathes called emimec auto sprints. They were a pegboard controlled single spindle, multi turret lathe. A young lad was given to me to operate a sprint on a single operation setting, just turning down the end of a windscreen wiper shaft as it was the wrong profile. I heard a loud scream, went to see what had happened, and he had managed to cut of part of a finger. Turns out he stuck his hand in the m/c after starting it to remove a bit of swarf. H and S got involved, and I was interviewed at length by them, along with my boss and the shop floor manager. The outcome was all the sprints had to be fitted with a second start button, and I think the lad got compensation, as he never came back to work 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bender Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 Probably a combination of recent events and the usual. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rennie Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 Just feels horrible! I've got to light 4 machines the same as the 1 the incident occurred on in the morning but not the actual 1. I also haven't been here for nearly 2 weeks so it was going to feel strange anyway 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
