Synopsis by Hal Erickson

In this sequel to How to Have an Accident at Home, eternal "fall guy" J. Jonah Fate takes us into the home of a typical suburbanite named Donald Duck. A stickler for household safety, Donald makes certain that everyone in his family avoid accidents by anticipating them. But once Donald is at the workplace, it's a different story. Our hero keeps his mind on everything BUT job safety, resulting in several quick trips to the hospital. But does Donald learn from his painful experiences? Certainly not: when anything goes wrong, Donald blames "Fate" for his misfortune--and J. Jonah Fate is none too happy. One brief scene in How to Have an Accident at Work reveals that all of Donald's coworkers are named after Disney animation staffers.
