The shop teacher at my school actually did lose a couple of fingers to a table saw (not at school). Like right after he retired, too.

    Ours got his tie caught in a belt sander. If it wasn't for a quick thinking kid who pulled the cord...

    He did get some chin sanding in, which is nice.

    Those teachers wore ties in my school... They were clip-on for exactly this reason.

    The original reason that Geek Squad employees wear clip on ties is in the event it gets on pulled into a printer, it won't choke them. At least that's what I was taught 15+ years ago when I worked GS.
