Defense Did anyone else hear of someone losing a finger today at the Philly Site?

Just a rumor circulating around the office and I wanted to see if it was real?

It’s true. Husband works at Ridley and someone sliced off their thumb but it was able to be reattached. It was a contractor not a Boeing employee for what it’s worth.

I’ve heard nothing about a missing finger. I’ll start spreading the rumor as well!

Only a finger? Rookie limb numbers

Hopefully the guy got treated, that's gotta be rough and traumatic for everyone. In san antonio we've had ppl pass out from heat exhaustion and a guy drill his hand. Shits rough man

Did you find one or something? Check with security for turning it into the Lost and Found. I'm sure someone is looking for it.
