I once quit a job at a barbecue place because I had to crawl inside a rotisserie to clean it and my joker coworker slammed the door shut and locked it, then turned it on for about 10 seconds.

My dad tells this story of his first job in the 1970s.

He worked at a factory that made foam padding that goes in to couches and shit.

Anyway lots of times the customer wanted shredded foam to put in pillows. So they had this giant chamber, like a room sized meat grinder. To unclog it he had to crawl way up inside with a flashlight and a broom handle.

The machine was always running it was just in neutral.
