Transcript of a short YouTube video (creator: Mike Andes) in which Mike reports a workplace injury: a planter fell on his finger, severely crushing it. A second speaker (boss) responds skeptically—accusing him of faking for workers' compensation—then fires him, but later apologizes and advises photographing the injury and conducting a future safety briefing; they mention hospitalization and insurance.
Hey boss. I think I injured myself during this job. I was working around the planters and one of them dropped on my finger and it's completely smashed. Bro, you're completely playing the system, you know, you're just trying to get workers comp. I'm firing you right now. No, I'm really sorry about that. Make sure you take some photos of the incident and we'll make sure at the next team meeting we do a safety briefing. So we can avoid this in the future. But for now, just focus on getting the hospital get fixed up. That's why we have insur.
