Metering Safety - Share your safety story by clicking on 'comment'. 

Meter Safety means focus!  

Coming home safely at the end of EVERY day is what your family wants from you, just as you want to know that your family has survived their day too, right?  There are far too many stories about workers not wearing PPEs and thinking that they are capable of doing a job 'real quick' because they've "always been okay" again, and again, the next job went okay, and the next ,until one day: FLASH!  Reality strikes and your life (and the lives of those you love) is changed FOREVER!! 

Be Safe All Ways! Means: All Ways!! At home, work, or play... Where are you? Your environment, the atmosphere, your state of mind. Think about where you are. Know what you are doing and be aware! For example: When doing voltage tests: do you "Look around? Where is Ground?" 

If you know of a safety story that would help to remind all of us just how precious life is, Share it here!!! Sometimes there are minor incidents and they were lucky, but others not so... 

Click on 'Comments' if you have something to share with us. It's good to share dangers that may help to keep others safe... Providing strategic knowledge to those who may only have a bit of tactical awareness.  

It's also healing for some to share their stories or to know that others face (or have faced) similiar incidents. 

What did you learn?  

How has it changed your life?  

What advice to you have?

Nickname Stories - click on 'Comment' and Share Your Story ~

I enjoy hearing stories of how someone got their nickname. The ones that stick. I myself have had many nicknames since I was a child from my father who was always calling me by other names than the one on my birth certificate.  In turn, as I became a father, I too had fun nicknames for my kids and grandkids.

I would love to hear about your nickname and the story behind it.  Please add your story to this page. Keeping in mind that this is a family friendly site!
