Have you ever done something you knew deep down you shouldn't? Cross the road even though the signal said DON'T WALK (there's nobody coming, right)? Drink expired milk (it smells okay, must be good right)? Drive a 6" lag bolt with a high torque cordless drill straight down at head level (what could happen)?
Okay, maybe you've never done that last one, but last Thursday whilst building the new stall for Gummy Bear I did, and that was really, really stupid...
Mr DeWalt and I had a slight disagreement about exactly
how far that lag bolt needed to go into the new door. I thought it needed to go just a little further, and he wholeheartedly disagreed. Needless to say, he won the argument.
I'm alright, no concussion that I know of, but I'll think alot harder about where the drill is relative to my body from now on.
