As an ironworker, I am frequently in situations where I have to be sturdy and steady on my feet.
I don’t mind laboring numerous stories above the ground, even when there really isn’tanything under my feet. I consistently stay focused when I am at work and I try to keep my eyup open at all times, a new girl started laboring in the crew and she really doesn’t scrub up after himself. The girl left a couple of spools of 6 inch genre 304 double loop wire tires on the floor of a building where I was laboring. The 6 inch genre 304 double loop wire ties blended in with the color of the boards and I did not see them. I almost tripped over the wire tie, because I was carrying a piece of rebar on each one of my shoulders. I started yelling and screaming at the new girl when I tripped. I really could have been hurt and that was the first time in my whole job that I saw my life flash before my eyup. I went house at the end of the day and kissed my wife and both of my teenagers. I never really thought that I might end up in an accident because of someone else’s carelessness or negligence. The near accident made me think about my priorities. I decided to take a vacation and spend some time with my family. The two of us went to the park and stayed for a whole week. I didn’t say no to anything that the teenagers wanted to do while all of us were there.
