ORIGINAL: sirsholly thirded!!! When we were in Florida in January, we were building some crates. . . part of this involved me using the pnumatic staple gun. He would be holding the particle to the 2x4's and I was stapleing them up. Every once in a while he would act like I had went crooked and sent a staple through to his hand. It was not all in a row. He would wait until I was in "the zone" and then do it. He did this 5 to 8 times or so. I told him that pay backs were a bitch. Eight months have went by. Yesterday, I was standing on the ground with my hand on the trailer edge, as he was wheeling the wall bucky onto it. As he got level with my hand I SCREAMED and then yelled, "MY HAND!" He had no expression except to pale a bit, and then said, "Goddamn YOU!" I laughed my ass off and told him "Remember Florida?" Now before you all think that it is a BUNCH of pratical jokes all day, it is not. That equipment is heavy and safety is a priority. With the staple-thing, he was waiting until after I had actually pulled the trigger. With the hand thing, it is a two-wheeled kick-back dolly, so there was no dranger of him dropping it on himself. If he had let go, it may have rolled forward a little, but my hand and no one else was in the way. I really do not agree with screwing around a work all day.
