The guy obviously used a shoe phone...

"Operator: "What number are you calling?"
Smart: "I'm calling Control, Operator…"
Operator: "You have dialed incorrectly. Give me your name and address and your dime will be refunded."
Smart: "Operator, I'm calling from my shoe!"
Operator: "What is the number of your shoe?"
Smart: "It's an unlisted shoe, Operator!" "

It appears this man has more brain in his large toe than the people who've left any of the above messages.

Shame on all of you......put yourself in his place, is it humorous?

Oh, hell no! I need both my arms as I am not that proficient with my big toe.

How was this person left alone working with dangerous equipment? There should be an investigation and O.S.H.A. should cite the company if found negligent. Workers who encounter unsafe working conditions must speak up and alert O.S.H.A. if their employer ignores their safety.

Workers should have no problem bringing up safety issues in the work place. There are whistle blowing laws that protect workers who expose employers that repeatedly ignore safety problems in the work place. A good employer will invite concerns and work toward a safer work place however many will ignore your safety and refuse to spend two cents to ensure workplace safety. For those employers who refuse to make their workers safe go to www.osha.gov and turn them in.
