Narrative

The operator was carrying items in both hands while climbing into the cab of a scraper. He set his right knee down on one of the steps to keep his blance and then pushed off with that knee to climb in the rest of the way. He felt a sharp pain in his knee when he pushed off. He said the pain quickly went away and he worked the rest of the day.
