Pneumatic Drill for 8 Hours!

[truesilence]

Just had to endure 8 bloody hours of seriously loud power drilling today right outside where I work. I'm ok thankfully, but all 3 workmen had NO EAR PROTECTION!!! And they obviously don't have T..... Don't get it, I really don't.....

They are stupid not wear hearing protection and a failure in health and safety.
Glad you are ok and ears ok......lots of love glynis

I wouldn't assume they don't have T. I know a number of people who have some degree of T from occupational noise exposure, and they pretty much see it as the cost of doing business and say they don't think about it very much.

I have known a lot of people with T in the real world; very few of them have been especially distraught about it.
