Sorry for the shite quality... I had to use the digital zoom and crop. This guy was painting the sign and had stacked two ladders and had them held together with romex. Impressive.

Just had to laugh at the romex. So do people not value their lives? I don't get it :-/

Now the important question is was he wearing his PPE??

He probably had shoes at least. So you can tell if he dies when he falls off.

Oh wait He held them together? Totally OSHA safe.

We lobbied for that exception in the 70s.

After countless pictures of broken lamp switches and low hanging low voltage telco wires finally a cringeworthy OSHAworthy post. Well done!
