Today we started off a little differently. It was the composite department OSHA safety training day. This training occurs once a year. The company brings in a very nice lady who presents a powerpoint while we sit and listen. She also asked a few questions.
Nice Lady: "You are new here, where did you come from?"
Me: "College"
Nice Lady: "Why did you leave??"
Me: "We are actually going back"
Nice Lady: "What do gloves protect you from?"
Mike: "Strippers... I mean paint stripping chemicals"
And when Adam complained to this safety woman that he was constantly cutting off his fingertips:
Joe: "Maybe they should take away your knife and give you a spoon!"
Adam: "They must have already done that to you because you are so fat."
Five minutes later the laughter died down.
It was a good start to the morning, and I learned that MSDS is being abbreviated to SDS. SDS stands for Safety Data Sheet. Oh and we tabbed the inside of the deck joint.
Some strippers aren't bad and don't require gloves. Call me if you need names. Don't tell your mom.
