Two Down, Eight to Go

At what point does this guy either find another job or flat out retire???

Wash. rodeo coordinator loses 2nd finger on job
Eds: APNewsNow.
      WATERVILLE, Wash. (AP) - Some people may lose sleep on the job
or even lose the stapler off their desk. Dane Keane loses fingers.
      The 52-year-old Washington man was helping to secure a bull in a
bucking chute Saturday evening when his finger got caught between a
rope and a metal fence pole. His left index finger ended up being
amputated at the second joint.
      But it wasn't his first time losing a finger on the job. In
2000, Keane lost the end of his right ring finger and was flipped
into the air by a bull.
      Keane says he loves the rodeo but says it's "a little on the
bad luck side" for him.
