Narrative

After pre-tripping my truck, I saw who I thought was the attending supervisor for J & W Excavating. I needed to tell him I had to leave at 2:00 pm that day. As I went between the truck & the building to tell him, I tripped & landed on my left knee which caught the corner of a metal pan filled with water that my right leg had fallen into (causing the cut to knee).
