guy killed at my work

Postby Ruishy1 on Mon Sep 22, 2008 9:35 pm

Midweek last week, we are all going bout our usual business, next thing some guy comes up to one of my colleagues, starts talking to him.
Few minutes later he pulls us all aside and tells us a guy was out back having a smoke, a lorry comes round a blind bend and crashes right into him :o
I wont go into gory details, but the guy didnt die right away, and in the end, they didnt know whether they were cutting him away from the lorry, or cutting the lorry away from him :idea:

Makes you think about your own mortality a little :(

Yeah it does bring it home a bit when it happens. A guy was killed where I work back in May. I can't go into details due to legal reasons but it's caused everyone to stop and think.
