Must have been a really boring job, RIP.
I wonder what type of industrial accident it was. My heart goes out to the friends and family of this person. Hopefully the authorities and the company can figured out what happened and prevent future deaths or injuries.
There are other ways of getting out of work early.

Yeah I think this person punched the wrong clock.Â
Bummer for his family. Worker's comp won't cover the expense of the funeral let alone the loss of income.Â
 Dying at work, suck. I hope to die in a beach surrounded by only the people I like drinking my favorite drink and falling asleep in the sun, 500 years or more from now.
My goal, live forever or die trying.
