    The shop teacher at my school actually did lose a couple of fingers to a table saw (not at school). Like right after he retired, too.

      Ours got his tie caught in a belt sander. If it wasn’t for a quick thinking kid who pulled the cord…

      He did get some chin sanding in, which is nice.

          Those teachers wore ties in my school… They were clip-on for exactly this reason.

        Wearing a tie in a workshop is like pointing a gun at other people at the shooting range. Never do it unless you want bad things to happen.

          He did not. He made learning exciting though.

        The original reason that Geek Squad employees wear clip on ties is in the event it gets on pulled into a printer, it won’t choke them. At least that’s what I was taught 15+ years ago when I worked GS.

          Real men wear real ties that will get them killed in case of a minor accident. Not like you woke liberal tech dorks with your safety standards and learning things 🙄

      Yeah, our shop teacher lost a finger as well. Luckily it was on the job.
