## Narrative

The employee was firebossing on 11 East and stopped at Brk 28 to swap out mantrips. While waiting they helped pick up pallets that were in the roadway and after stacking several pallets, a board broke on one and exposed a nail that struck them under their chin that caused a laceration which required surgical glue to close.
