    Default Safety First?


    Made of 2X4s and 8 penny nails. Check out the guy in the back of the truck bed to help steady the arrangement. Looks safe enough to me.

    3 man crew pulls up in a truck to change a light bulb in a highway light fixture. 2 guys tell the third man to climb up this sturdy ladder and change the bulb. The third man says to one of the other men, "OK, but will you hold my sign while I climb?" The other man says, "Sure, and I'll hold the ladder for ya too." HERE'S YA SIGN!

    People will think this photo is from some third world country when in fact it's downtown Louisville, KY.
    My boots may be red but I'm no clown.

    I'm still waiting for the new safety vests to come out from my company in th next few weeks.

    There isn't really much of a difference than what we have now, but it does have one new feature:

    A large reflective red and white bullseye on the back so your bosses, certain contractors and distracted drivers know where to aim.

    The vest with the boobs was a good one tho....the first time I have laughed in weeks....
    "No, installing your fence is NOT an emergency"...

    - or -

    Yes, my avatar does describe my attitude towards many others...
