OK whatever you say my man. We obviously do not work for the same people.

Even if he doesn't come down on his head, he will be coming down in an awkward position from a height higher than normal, which in itself could cause a serious injury. Safety issues will always go your way with supervisors. They harp on it all the time.

Thank you for the sermon, but where did the NF publish this?

Once again, does the NF have your point of view clearly listed?
I am still waiting.
