[QUOTE="browned out, post: 678475, member: 8105"] Hope he pulls thru. Things we work around or with all day can and do injure UPSers everyday. When I worked as a night sort as a primary sorter I was working at the last bay: door 72 in the hub; everyone else was at least 6 or 7 doors down. With the extendos, multiple belts and other hub noises it was difficult to here anything. I heard a frantic scream for help; one of our full time sups foot was stuck in between the belts where they changed direction when he was riding them out like they used to ( or still do; I don't know; we used to say; you only can be on a moving belt if your tie is wide enough or else your fired) Sorry for the rambling. Anyhow It was my sup, his face was purple. His ankle and lower leg were only torn ligaments, still very scary to see. Hit the stop button to halt the belts and the building. Sup was very relieved, and on crutches for months. God bless. [/QUOTE]
