  • So much irony packed into such a small incident.

    Just got back from giving first aid to a chap who tripped over and twister his ankle.

    He's a Health and Safety officer.

    He tripped in front of the Health and Safety noticeboard.

    He tripped over a bright orange plastic 'CAUTION' sign, placed out to warn of the power cable on the floor to the vacuum cleaner that was then in use.

    He was going to put up a notice about how we should all be more aware of tripping hazards.

    His surname is Fauls.

    That is all.

    Couldn't have happened to a better person! Where I used to co-op we had to do ALOT of safety training because our division had 4 fataliies.... One of them was a guy was ontop of a product tank, you know the kind that hold 30-60 THOUSAND gallons of GASOLINE and the tank gauge was frozen, solution was to thaw it with a blow torch. Open flame, lots of gas vapors, big ass fire.

    Then another darwin award winner was at an asphalt plant and wasn't wearing his H2S meter and went into a low lying area, funny thing its heavier than air and your kinda dead by the time you figure out you have been exposed if not wearing a meter. I guess the smart people around the area that saw him fall over weren't able to get to protective gear in time to save him because they knew better than rush in and try and pull him out.

    OH and because of all that, grown adults were yelled at for not using the small cross walk in front of the giant corprate office with hundreds of people walking in at same time.
    I'm sorry reading is not a new concept it has been widely taught in our nation for at least the past 100 years. Please, learn to do it CORRECTLY before you become contagious.
