Death Be Not Proud

Co-Counsel just asked me if she was entitled to worker's compensation in the event that a box from which we extract our labor were to fall on her head and render her unconscious and/or dead. I thought about it, and here is my answer:

1. You are not an employee of this Hell, but were hired by a staffing agency that loses your pay check on a weekly basis.

2. You are not entitled to a paid vacation, health insurance or even a lunch hour. What makes you think that you or your loved ones are entitled to any form of compensation in the event that said object injures you.

3. You are an attorney doing database entry at a publishing company. You should be less concerned about what happens in the event of your death and just hope that the death happens.
