Be Aware...

Hazards are lurking everywhere on your jobsite.
I'm working on a powerplant expansion (up near the Canadian border aye :wink:

) and with the increased capacity, new transmission lines are required. This was taken about 20 miles from my project while erecting a new pole. Fortunately the crew saw the tracks in the snow (this is one of the few benefits of life in the frozenated northern plains).
Always thoroughly review your parts and work area for hidden and unsuspected hazards.

PPE wouldn't have helped with that one. Take my chances with a 9" B&D Wildcat waaaay before crawling in there with that one!

How about a slow footed friend for PPE. "Here kitty kitty."

That photograph is exactly why one should never work alone. There should never be less than two people working together.

Rules for working with a partner:
Always make sure you can run faster than your partner.
Always send the partner in first.
Always have the partner test the plank first.
Always have the partner taste the water first.
Always have the partner taste the food first.

That is a whole lot of whip ass in a small package!
