    Completely agree, they were in the wrong legally, but I’m not arguing anything on the business side. I’m pointing out that it wasn’t some 8 year old. The told him not to stick his hands in a dangerous machine and he ignored that. Working with machines is dangerous if you don’t follow safety protocols.

      This is why we don’t have kids that age doing those jobs. They have impulsivity problems, so we start them with low risk shit like flipping burgers. Either the law means something or it doesn’t.

        Working near a frier is just as dangerous. Probably more so considering they have to operate it.

        The point is, when is it ok to allow someone to be in these environments? 21? 25? What about driving? That’s more dangerous than working on a farm or any job.
