Mostly True Memoirs
A GRUESOME INDUSTRIAL INJURY
Our roof was destroyed in the hailstorm.
The roofers are here today.
They’ve been pounding and banging and making a racket since 7:00 am.
There’s no quiet way to get a new roof.
However, in the past hour, the workers have been making a horrible screaming noise.
I can’t tell if it’s a gruesome industrial injury or not.
The same company is doing several houses on our street.
They’re probably just calling out to each other.
If someone were hurt, they would most likely stop banging and pounding and go to the aid of their poor dismembered colleague.
I haven’t heard any sirens. Yet.
Hopefully they will finish the roof without any gruesome injuries.
