Hanging Steel

Click to englarge.





Yesterday I had the pleasure of watching three men and one lady construct the above steel roofing supports on the house across the street from me.


They did is in the rain, with plenty of lightning in the area. This didn’t slow them down a bit.


While they were working I did not observe any of the following:


The use of any hard hats.


Steel-toed boots. In fact they all wore flip-flops.


No safety harness in use as they walked from beam to beam.


No tape measure.


No level.


No square.


No welding goggles or eye shields of any sort.


At the end of the day they loaded their welding machine on their motorcycle and left. They area back on the job today finishing up.

Off to Bangkok for three days back on line May 4th.
