What was the most dangerous part of your job today?

For me it was getting hit with falling pine cones. There was a Red tailed squirrel harvesting pine cones - they go up the tree chew the cones off and let them drop to the ground. There was a cone hitting the ground or me ever 5 or 10 seconds - kind of cool how hard and quickly they work. Cheers!

  • You mean a red squirrel?  Red tail squirrels don't live in North America.

    I hate these little bastards!  The are worse than mice when they get in to things and aren't even big enough to eat.

    It's the same every day - I'm in strangers' homes, customers can be unpredictable. I've been threatened,  bitten by a dog, abused, etc. Goes with the territory.
    I get killed with kindness, too - if three customers in a row offer me coffee, I then have to find a public toilet somewhere to get rid of used coffee. OHS regulations state that I'm not allowed to use customers' facilities. This post was edited by Slartibartfast at April 20, 2017 7:41 PM MDT

    I had a squirrel almost pee on me once.  I wasn't working though.  What kind of job to you have anyway?

    Since I'm not at work today, there will be n workplace hazards.  When I am at work, the biggest hazard is getting a paper cut.
