Remember. It is not the fall that kills you, It's that sudden stop at the end.

LOL i know, my next door neighbor has been an OSHA inspector for as long as i can remember.
no we don't tie off at all!

i figured if my boss really starts gittin on my butt about this i might tell him who my neighbor is.. just a little back up plan.

i really like the job. but if it doesn't work out i was offered an other job starting in april moving houses and it pays the the same. even though i don't really like the idea of climbing under a house and jacking it up either, but i'll do it



hey DOC, yer making me a bit light headed thanks for thre pic's

I am in the commercial and residential construction business in dallas fort worth area have been for 24 years and have never ever even seen an osha employee much less an inspector also have never tied off to anything not saying its not the right thing to do
we still build job site scaffolding that was rumored to be outlawed and that osha was going to check on us every week and fines would be hefty that was 5 years ago still no osha
