Narrative

The EE was improperly loading steel into a drill. They laid the boom down & were adding steel directly into the carousel. One end of a steel fell out while handling it. This caused the other end to fall out & smash their thumb between another steel. Upon seeing a doctor, it was diagnosed the the EE ruptured a tendon in their right thumb.
