“I wonder how many pins and screws are inside Choice One employee bodies?”

Recently, surveyor Dan Perreira broke his arm and needed several permanent screws surgically installed. Lucky for him, he has quite a few Choice One friends able to loan him a sling (thanks to our buy one get one slew of surgeries last fall).

 

We went ahead and calculated the number of nuts and bolts within current Choice One employees thanks to sports injuries and our occasional clumsiness with a very unscientific poll. The results? 35 screws, 12 anchors/fasteners, three metal plates/strips, two 7” pins, and one ligament hook (in a pear tree). Oh, and as a boy, Brian Barhorst once had has hair tied together to mend a scalp laceration (it was the 1980s…). And here we thought our digital survey collection equipment were the only robots around here!

 

Honestly, we shouldn’t be surprised at the totals above. Surely, after reading a couple of these Mindsets, it’s obvious we have a few screws loose. But 35?! Now THAT’S crazy!
