So, last night at work I was helping unload the rack of pallets. And there was this one pallet that was full of boxes of gallons of water, which is pretty heavy, and it was on the second level. So, I get our fancy big metal pole to roll it to the front of the rack, and have to push pretty hard, which apparently caused the entire rack to shake a little. When I finally got it pushed forward, I steped out of the rack and heard a box hit the ground behind me. I thought one of my coworkers was being a jackass and threw an empty box at me, but alas I looked at the box and it was an HP Laserjet printer! It had fallen off a pallet that was on the very top of the rack, where store items are stored. It landed, literally, a foot behind me! In retrospect it would have been pretty sweet to have been nailed by it, I mean, I wouldn't have to work, and I would either get workman's comp, or I would sue and get all sorts of money!
