Great cartoon about safety in the workplace!, 13 February 2007
10/10
Author: kristinaa from Southern California, United States

This is one of my all-time favorite shorts. It features Donald Duck as a worker in some type of factory or machine type shop.

J.J. Fate (?) narrates while Donald participates in some very dangerous behaviors at work. He uses the machines to slice his lunch meat and cheese. He sets up his lunch on another machine complete with a table cloth and a flower in a vase. He wears loose clothing around dangerous machines, behaves dangerously near flammable items, and even looses his focus when he stares at a beautiful woman walking by.

Overall this is a very good cartoon short and hopefully this will see a release on DVD in the future along with the previous short "How to Have an Accident in the Home".
