Narrative

Two electricians were changing a motor on a dust auger. As they entered onto the concrete foundation underneath the kiln's bag house, one slipped and fell hands first into wet fly ash, a byproduct from coal that also has lime mixed with it. He stopped to wipe his hands off then they continued to finish their task of changing the motor.
