The place I worked at 3 years ago, someone forgot to drop their kid off and left them in the car in 90 degree heat (freedumb units). I assumed the guy was overworked as hell; that place did not give a fuck about work/life balance, just like most places I've worked here in the land of the slaves and home of the cowardly.
Did… did the kid survive?
No, they died.
Some say he is still out there today
I can't remember what the conversion is so I'll just assume it's 90 celsius and the son cooked to a nice crisp outside, juicy tender inside
90°F, that's outside. Inside a car, it got to over 120°F (probably). The kid died.
Well shit, I was hoping for a nice denouement
The lead forklift trainer tried to perform CPR, but the child was far too gone. I think she had to take a few days off.
Yea, I would have had to take those days off too. That's gotta be traumatizing
