Crushed-arm factory worker wins £125,000 compensation

A factory worker who had his arm crushed by machinery has won a £125,000 payout from his employer.

Robert Faulds was severely injured when his right arm was pulled into machinery at the bottle-top factory in Bridge of Allan in September 2013.

The 58-year-old said United Closures and Plastics blamed him for the accident and demoted him.

The firm was also fined £12,000 after admitting health and safety breaches at Stirling Sheriff Court.

Mr Faulds, from Falkirk, was working on a printing machine when the accident happened.

His arm was dragged into the offset machine and crushed.

The Health and Safety Executive took United Closures and Plastics to court over the incident, where the firm admitted failing to do a sufficient risk assessment of the machine and failing to ensure proper access.

That should read worker received the compensation he deserved.......

That headline reads like he should be standing outstanding the court with a bottle of champagne

and a big cardboard cheque like a fucking lottery winner.

How's the crushed arm getting along?

It has been bronzed and cast as trophy,

To be waved as an award by people 'winning compensation',

and will appear in future photos outside courts throughout the land

alongside the cardboard cheque and bottle of champagne so the

picture matches the crap headline the journalists write.

In a statement Mr Faulds said ' Its what it would have wanted'.

Petrol stations/mini marts: I go in just to get petrol and there's a queue at the tills because some people decide to do the weekly shopping when they pop in for petrol, holding everybody up. There should be a till for people who only want to pay for their petrol. Even if you do manage to pay quickly 9 times out of 10 the driver of the car at the pump in front of you will take ages to get back to their car 'cos they're shopping or yakking and there's a queue of cars behind you so you can't reverse out to get away. This always seems to happen when I'm in a hurry, never when I've got plenty of time.

Also people in supermarkets who can't read simple signs like "7 items or less" or "baskets only" and start unloading a trolley full of stuff onto the belt, and of course they are so apologetic when you point it out to them, but do they load up and move to another till? Do they hell as like.

How do you know he's having an affair two streets away? Are they noisy fuckers?

Donna next door heard the rumour from her pal round the corner, and Willie over the road was so pissed off with the guy he told him we all knew about his shagging. The boy went red, bolted for his car and drove off at high speed, that was 5 weeks a ago, and he wasn't seen until last Friday, it seems he's got his cajones back and the affair is back on

Pay at the pump then, problem solved

Fog lights.

Here's a wee guide:

If you can see the motor that's half a mile down the road in front of you, you don't need your fucking fog lights on.

It's that time of year when c***s know how to turn their fog lights on but have no idea how to turn them off.

Also in a line of traffic. If you can see 30 cars in front what makes you think the guy right behind can't see you?

Those videos being shared around Cuntbook and Shitter of wankers filming themselves 'pranking' unsuspecting shoppers in supermarkets by shouting at them.

I hope they all die.

It's generally old folk or girls they do it to as well, never big lads. I'd love to see one of them do it and get smashed face first into a shelf full of beans.
