A group of supermarket employees attempt to slingshot a co-worker sitting in
a shopping cart off of a ramp in a new video entry, called “Shopping Cart
Bungee” on the Montana State Fund’s No-Jack Website. Just before the
launch, an employee bystander states, “This has got to be the dumbest thing

cart careens into a parked car with the
“less-than-the-brightest-bulb-on-the-block” daredevil flying over the hood
and the co-workers scattering in all directions. The clip ends with the
message, “Don’t be a jackass at work.”
Other video entries on the website include sword fights with
cattle prods and rolling down a hill in a tractor tire. A play on the MTV
Network’s show “Jackass,” the state workers compensation insurer late last
month launched the “Don’t Be a Jackass at Work” safety campaign. In
addition to submitting and watching videos, Montana residents can take a
quiz and enter a contest to win one of four Nintendo Wii videogame consoles.
“Being safe in your workplace starts with being smart,” says the Website at www.nojack.net.” “And being smart starts here. Sorta.”
