He should be fined for wearing socks with sandals. I'm sure that violates some kind of law.

Peg - That is too true to be a joke.

I saw this on some site, I don't recall where. It was on T-shirts they sold IIRC. Safety first? Nah. Safety third.

Probably came from some theater tech.

If safety was the first priority you’d never get anything done.  Nor own a bathtub or a ladder.

Mission is first.  Without a goal why do anything?
Budget is second.  How much money, assets and labor you got to work with.
Then given those constraints how can you accomplish it safely.

It’s not throwing safety out the window.  It’s evaluating the whole situation.  Sometimes the answer is “you can’t” so then you go back to make modifications to the goal or the budget. 

Think of it as that trade-off triangle.  Goal/mission on one point, budget on another and safety on the third.  Where do you put the intersection.

Nowhere in these triangles does it mention safety. There's not room for it when the only thing that matters is production. You need to hit those numbers!

I think it was Ford who said Quality is Job 1. Safety wasn't their first priority either.

When I worked for GM it was:
  1. Production. Numbers.
  2. Quality. Good enough.
  3. Safety. Safe enough.

I liked that sign but it was too small, so 12 hours and one extremely sore wrist later, I have a bigger sign. It was 4800x4800 pixels but I cut it down to 2000x2000. That's big enough.

I just resized the picture to fit my cell phone. New home screen in 3, 2, 1.

I saw this picture of bats on a cave ceiling today and it reminded me of the Batman logo, so I overlaid the logo on the picture. It was a 1920x1080 image, perfect for my desktop, but I resized it 75% so I could post it. Here's a picture of the bats alone too. I posted the pic here because I thought it was funny that the bats arranged themselves this way, and I didn't want to start a new thread.
