@George-K This should maybe go in the "Dark and Inappropriate Humor" forum thread.

Reminds me of a buddy of mine who used to work a drilling rig off the coast of Africa. As a condition of the oil lease, it was stipulated that the drilling company had to hire a certain percentage of natives.
Folks, drilling rigs are not playgrounds. There are multiple ways to get yourself killed, especially if you have no clue what you are doing. First week of drilling, they killed one. Company representative went out to talk to the family, paid for any funeral expenses, and gave them a compensation check for the loss of their son.
That one check was more money than the combined family made in a year.
The next week after the funeral, the mother showed up at the company office, next son in tow, wanting to know if the company still had her dead son's old job open.
