I wonder if it was the [Dunderbeck Sausage Company](http://www.djmorton.demon.co.uk/scouting/songs/dundbeck.htm/)? ---

My ex is in insurance and brought home pics once from a similar accident at a McD’s meat processing plant. This was for grinding hamburger meat and it was pretty damned efficient :eek: IIRC they did reuse the machine but the cleaning process was long and involved and included replacing all non stainless steel parts that could not be sterilized to the insurance companies’ satisfaction. ---

I guess _grisly_ is the adjective of choice when one is [caught in a grinder.](http://homepage.mac.com/rondavis/iblog/C791896557/E1561904825/) ---

I thought this was going to be more along the lines of: “Hey, did you hear about that guy at the sausage factory? He got fired for sticking his penis in the meat cutter. Yeah, really. And they fired the meat cutter, too.” ---

> [@Jeep's Phoenix](#): > > “Hey, did you hear about that guy at the sausage factory? He got fired for sticking his penis in the meat cutter. Yeah, really. And they fired the meat cutter, too.” That meat cutter is verrry popular with the guys. I’ve heard she sucks harder than a sausage grinder. ---

The name of the factory has been released. “Dibbler’s”, said the article I saw. I think I had one once. Inna bun. ---

If he was taking a cig break when it happened, would it be smoked sausage? ---

What I found disturbing was the mysterious circumstances of the accident. Apparently three workers were in the room and there were no problems. Two of them left and when they returned the other guy had disappeared. After looking around for him, they found he had somehow been ground up inside the sausage machine. And nobody can figure out how it happened. Obviously nobody in Norway has been reading any Stephen King novels. ---

CORRECTION It was a pickle factory. The pickle slicer was responsible! ---

I find it _more_ disturbing what some of the guys in this thread thought the story was about. Makes me wonder how many fellows think this is a job where having a dick fall into something is more plausable than thinking of a whole person falling in… I mean, it’s not a nudist sausage factory is it? And it didn’t happen in the men’s room where you’d expect to find vunerable male parts, so how would you all imagine something like that would happen? Maybe my job is too mundane, since my male coworkers never seem in danger of injuring their johnsons in the copy machines, not even the big one that prints fast. ---
