Lurid Work Stories"I know a railwayman of 40-odd years' service," says Juan Quar, "and he tells me a new gruesome yarn each time we meet. Last week's was of checking the time on the wristwatch of a severed arm he'd just collected after a track fatality."
Tell us the horrible stories you tease the new hires with, or that you've been told.
NB By definition, these are probably all made up. Roll with it

A work colleague came back from a skiing/snowboarding tripSaid that someone there had gone to do a jump and basically landed at a 45 degree angle, pushing both his shin bones through his knee caps.
I don't think skiing's for me :o/

A guy in my localhad his arm in one of those really complicated things they put on really bad breaks.
I asked how he did it "snowboarding" he replied I was impressed to get that fucked up he must have been doing something really 'gnarly' and said so.
He looked a little downcast and said "I wish! I did it at a dry ski slope before I'd even gone down once. I lost my balance landed awkwardly with my full body weight on my wrist at a odd angle and ...SNAP"
"I'd go with a made up halfpipe story if I was you.. it'll make you look like less of a twat"

I used to say 'what if when you're skiing you fall over and the ski point gets stuck in the snow and twists your leg off?'Nobody took any notice of me, then a bloke had that exact accident on live TV. Blood everywhere. Bled to death. Awful business. Nobody stopped skiing though, strangely enough.
