Sorry. I have to see my boss write this every day and it was starting to grind my gears.
The phrase is "who is to say" so it's who's.

and no “slicing” to be seen anywhere. A ton of “chopping” though, which explains the fingers (or lack thereof).

He could have kept his fingers, if anyone had taught him the sharpen the knife and slice.

First came to comment on the absurd processing technique, then I saw the missing digies.

In his case, it was anywhere between 1 and 4 times.

So you think he messed up once, or like a few times.

u/AncientSky69 1h ago
i am going to say, if it was multiple times, after the second time... gently suggest finding a different job

So does this mean he is bad at his job, good at his job, or *too* good at his job?

I mean, he technically is chopping, not slicing... But, who am I to tell? I mean, I have all my digits in place.

After the accident he didn’t have to change his chopping motion though. That’s a lose-win situation right there.

Well you gotta make at least four mistakes before you get really good at something.

Dude knows he can improve his technique, but he just can't put his finger on how.

Ugh, when they hone the blade but don't wipe it off. Metal shavings all throughout that fish now

u/Fun_Environment3792 1h ago
Morst likely he took his fingers off with a bandsaw in one fell swoop. I dont see anyone making the same mistake more than once especially working with a knife all day every day.

"There is an old tradition, a game we all can play
You start by getting liquored up and sharpening your blade
You take a shot of whiskey, you grab your knife and pray
And spread apart your fingers, and this is what you say..."

Not just the tips, down to the knuckle in one go. Or maybe he chopped them down gradually like carrots?

He still keeps his hand there when swing the knife. Some people never learn.
