Reminds me of the time I dropped my laptop on my toe. Everyone I told the story to asked if my laptop was okay. Yes, it was. My toe somehow avoided a break and ended up with major bruising. I feel your pain, OP. Hope you're okay.

"Yeah, boss, I'm okay, however, we now have an abundance of red ink..."

The copier would cost the company money to replace.. Any injuries that needed medical attention would be paid for by you and the insurance coampany or workman's comp insurance. It would be cheaper to replace you than replace the copier.

Well the copier is probably worth more than you.

Mr. cheap-o doesn't want to have to buy a new one.

That sucks.

Dat copier, though! Still, one L&I claim will have your boss singing a different tune.

Smash copier, say, "Nope, and neither is your former employee." Walk out.

He doesn't seem like a good boss...hope you're okay though.

Make several copies of a workplace incident report that describes his actions and present some of them to him.
