Narrative

EE was making his normal rounds when he noticed a crane operater placing an NKM screen into a staging rack. EE noticed that the crane operator was having difficulty, he went to help the operator land the screen (normally a maintenance job). While helping, he placed his hand in a potential pinch point and when the screen was lowered, it pinched his two middle fingers.
