An Unexpected And Unwanted Surprise
Posted by News Desk on June 21st, 2010
With so many huge manufacturing plants turning out thousands of pounds of products every day, it’s not surprising that mistakes are made and that people get hurt. When people are negligent of their duties or of safety guidelines others can be seriously hurt or injured. A few years ago my Dad bought a bag of trail mix to snack on from a local grocery store. It had been processed in a plant that packages thousands of packages of similar food every day. While watching a movie and unassumingly munching on the trail mix, my Dad grabbed a handful of trail mix that would prove to be not quite what it seemed. Mixed in with the assortment of nuts, raisins, and candies was something unexpected, a rock. It had been missed in the factory inspection and packaged in with the trail mix. My Dad munched down on it, cracking a tooth in the process. Fortunately, it wasn’t a serious injury. This is a simple example of what kind of injury that can happen because of negligence. Unfortunately, more serious even life threatening injuries can often be the result.
