Safety reminder. We did a job yesterday maybe 4/12 roof pitch. My guy gets on roof to check pipe boots and a quick look over as she is selling house. He goes maybe 10' and slips.

Eye Wash Stations
I'm shopping around for an eyewash station to mount in the truck and also small eyewash bottles for the guys to carry in their pockets. Where are most of us mounting or storing the eyewash stations and first aid kits in the trucks? |

How many people actually wear a mask?
Do you wear a respirator? Pushing SH every day, and AC's modules, would make me believe we should. But every video I see, every job I watch....no one is wearing one.....not even employees. So...poll attached....do you wear one? |
