“So, I ended up cutting my hand on a stud, when I…was [a] second
year apprentice. So, I went to my foreman he started laughing at me
you know, come on you’re a big baby. I am like I am not a big baby,
you told me I have to report all accidents so I am doing what I am
supposed to do. Are you going to fill out the report or you’re not
going to fill out the report? Oh, you’re a big baby, so I am kind of, I
am left there - what do I do right?”
