Nebraska's Meat Packing Scandal, Round 2

Sensible. Back in the early 60's a GHS junior of my acquaintance had a summer job working in a Gainesville city warehouse. This was before it was known as GRU. He and another teenage summer employee were cutting up with a pallet loader and the ensuing accident damaged one of his lower legs to the point they had to amputate it.

 

I honestly am not sure if it’s a cheaper form of worker’s comp or a blanket rule by his carrier.

 

The day I turned 15 I got my first legal tax paying job (washed cars, walked dogs, mowed lawns before that)... If I could get one when I was 14 I would have.
