Not a Bad Day at Work: Two people rescued after falling into chocolate tank!

 This really doesn't sound like a bad day at work to me. I would have been happy eating my way out of the problem!  This is picture of a guy who fell into a vat of chocolate in 2016 in Kenosha, Wisconsin... and if I were on the rescue team, I would have volunteered to clean him up... and enjoy the chocolate!  - Don't tell me you weren't thinking of that either. LOL. Here's the story about the Pennsylvania workers:

Two people had to be rescued after falling in a tank that contained chocolate at a Mars Wrigley factory in Pennsylvania, according to multiple reports.

The Lancaster County 911 center confirmed to USA TODAY that officials believe both of the people were employees at the Elizabethtown, Pennsylvania, facility. They were both taken to the hospital following the incident on Thursday, one via an ambulance and the other in a helicopter.

Brad Wolfe, communications supervisor for Lancaster County 911 dispatch, told CNN earlier on Thursday that fire crews had “eliminated pulling them straight out of a tank.”

"They have to cut a hole in the side of the tank to get them out," he said, adding that it was not immediately clear how the two people fell into the tank.

The chocolate in the tank was about waist high, PennLive reported.

Mars Wrigley in a statement to USA TODAY said “We can confirm both people have been taken offsite for further evaluation. We’re extremely grateful for the quick work of the first responders.”
