Glad you came out ok!!

On one of our recent jobs, if the Corps of Engineers inspector caught you on site without:
1. hard-hat
2. safety vest
3. eye-protection
4. safety boots
5. wearing a seatbelt

You were immediately sent home, and possibly kicked off the job. Being kicked off the job could mean that you're out of a job. Even though we were a contractor, and did not work directly for the C.O.E.

I have used MSA V-gard hard hats for over 9 years, I have never had any problems with any of them. I have a regular brim for the winter and a wide brim for the summer. I am a little biased as these are the only hard hats I have ever used.

Safety is no accident.Always where your hardon.

Now that is funny.We go in GP sawmills and they put a note at the scale house.All truck drivers must have a Hard on when exiting the truck.Long time before anybody noticed it.But I did.Showed it the the female scale attendant.
