Everyone's worst nightmare is a cave in. Had a temporary help from LABOR READY. Seem to be a hard worker but not to bright. When installing the shoring (about 8' deep) this worker loses his footing and falls in and during the fall the shoring scraps the side walls and causes the cave in. Were all frantic at the site of this, and dig this laborer out. lucky the guy was okay but this guy started a big lawsuit with all. now the people from OSHA are investigating this hole mess. Is this the job from hell? I'm thinking of skipping town and starting a new business. The kind of business where i'm the only worker and there is no possible way to get hurt. What do you think? I'm going to become a writer on how to prevent accidents on the job... |

Hi!
Yes it sounds definitely like NO fun!
That idea about writing about how to avoid accidents on the job may just be your ticket off of construction jobsites!!
Thank you for posting your horror story!
