His buddy was not so lucky. Jolly as they call him was in a Bobcat when it collapsed and is the only worker that is MIA. From what Jeff (my buddy) tells me he watched him slide off followed by a large slab which fell pretty much right on top of where he fell.

Wow that sucks. Shit like that makes all of our little day to day problems absolutely insignificiant!!
