Re: Ladder Safety Has Come Along Way
yeah, it's crazy how some things are done.
 in all seriousness, if you ever need a quick safety talk on ladders... OSHA has a quick card reminding the safe way to use a ladder. I use to be bad about climbing down a ladder facing away from it.

Why do all of the ladders have the step that says " This is not a Step" If its not a step, then don't put one there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
