Well in 24 years, I have done a few.
My first job at a grocery store right out of high school, I was filling the egg case and had four cases of eggs on the dolly. Took the corner a little too fast and dumped them off the cart. Yep, 96 dozen eggs on the floor…1152 eggs, no survivors.
I have had a couple at my current job of 18 years at the newspaper.
One, I was unloading a semi of newsprint with the clamp truck (forklift type vehicle) forgot to check the height of the clamp as I headed into the semi trailer, caught the top edge of the building…took out about 12 foot of wall.
Two, which wasn’t entirely my fault…I was running a job on the press and there is a wash up bar that is held by two thumbscrews for cleaning the press, when not in use, the screws are backed off to pull the squeegee off the rollers. I was running a long job and the vibrations of the press caused the screws to back completely out, and the bar fell into the delivery chain. Tore the chain system out, delivery bars, and spun most of the teeth off the gears. Totally fucked up that press.
That’s about it…other than the inmate that escaped at the county jail that I got blamed for, but that’s another story.
