why did he hit you in the head?

Different breed of men. I used to work in shipyards a lot for the navy (not building, inspecting) and recall a time after work in a shipyard haunt where they had big, heavy ceramic mugs that you could buy and have incribed with your name. Then it would be left there for you to use whenever you came in. One guy, for no obvious reason, grabbed one off the bar and smashed it over another guys head. From the look of it many stitches were required. The guy who got hit stared for a moment in shock and then said "You broke my ----ing mug!" and the fists began to fly.

Some people don't need hard hats I guess.

I never wore my steel pot in Nam, and never wore a hard hat at work, unless someone really made me. Some people are good, and some are lucky.
