Reminds me of a boss I had at a former job. We were moving some of the
computer equipment around and he told us to be careful. If we fall, we were
to put ourselves between the computers and the ground. "Flesh grows back,
but computers cost money" was his phrase.. He was not kidding.

On of the many reasons it is a "former" job.
