Narrative

EE was working freshly poured concrete with a tamping bar. Concrete was poured to hold a post for a sign. As EE was tamping the concrete he managed to strike himself in the mouth with the pole breaking a tooth. Thurs 9/8/11 the EE saw a dentist. The dentist repaired the tooth thus making this incident reportable. The EE had no lost time. 9/9 & 9/10 are normal days off.
