Didn't you get taught the OH&S rules properly. hahahaha
Joking mate. I haven't had that happen to me yet, but know a few fitters that have suffered the same fate. Needless to say, a few choice words would have been said by you. Speak to your boss and get him to buy a Golden Tool. Bloody terrific for 22.5 truck tyres. They're worth a grand or so, but no more levers and alot easier on the back too. Take care

I know a guy that had one knocked out changing a car tyre. His boss ran over, helped him up then told him he could have the rest of the day off... after he finished changing the tyre.
His didn't look as nasty as that though, good luck with it I hope it gets fixed up properly. |
