My buddy George is a butcher at Pathmark. Years ago he severed his left thumb, while cutting a frozen turkey on the band saw. Saw caught the metal band that holds the legs together, and jerked his thumb into the blade. He is missing 3/4 of that thumb. I seen him a couple of months ago with his right hand all bandaged up. He cut his right thumb off doing the same thing, this time they could reattach it. I think he should find a new profession.
