I've normally never shied away from dark humor or a fucked up joke but something about the innocence of that man just going about his day really makes me hate even joking about it. I'm not hating on you for posting this, but this just really hits a bad note for me. Downvoted, no hard feelings

Yeah, as someone who has an almost identical job, the fact that people might think like this fills me with an absence of joy.
I think the most comforting way to take it is that when someone thinks "i could throw this drink and kill that guy" it's more of their mind being vigilant about dangerous opportunities, and not necessarily an endorsement of those possibilities. Kind of like how if you've ever picked up a really sharp kitchen knife you might think "it would be so easy to kill myself with this", that's not necessarily a "suicidal thought" but just the mind raising an alarm about a possibility + it's actually out of concern for not dying that my brain raises the thought. So arguably this thought crossing people's mind is actually out of an abundance of concern for safety. The morbid joking about it is probably after the fact, non-intuitive, and for almost all humans totally not thought in earnest.
I often have thoughts like this. It's the worst kind of thoughts you can have. It s a kind of morbid curiosity, a call of the void. They usually only pop up for a fraction of a second and get immediately and automatically ignored. Any decent human being is supposed to repress those thoughts. It's part of the human condition. Only politicians and psychopaths listen to those thoughts and act on them.
I feel like these thoughts are even more so happening when you're tired. I was driving one evening and started thinking how easy it'd be to just crash on a truck on the other lane. Really fucking scary how these thoughts just appear out of nowhere
Please, do the right thing. Save it for a politician.

What kind of degenerate are you? Why would you want to hurt/kill a union man who is working to help people?
I'm sorry to hear you're struggling with your disability.
Why is this post being taking so seriously? Do y’all think OP is actually going to electrify this random worker?
Ik it's a joke, but it's just tasteless
I fail to see the joke.
It's dumb. Why run. He ded anyway.
People aren't taking it literally, they just don't like the joke.
It can't always land. It's fine, it's just a shit post! There'll be better ones!
