Excellent, Mike.  Good info.

I'm always striving to be as safe as possible on ladders and at the customer's property.

I'll take it.  Let me know if you want more on the following, or if you or anyone else would care to join me at their training facility.  Maybe we can work a group rate:

I'm talking with Kevin and will be getting cert and training from them as well.

Thank you,

Al

How many certifications can one have? Will a ladder certificate really impress a customer?

In one year I have had one person ask about insurance. Nothing else. They want to know how much money they have to spend and if I'll take care of any issues after the job is complete. I've been climbing ladders for 36 years with some of that being fire dept. related. It's all pretty simple. Think and don't do something stupid!

To be honest, we all break ladder safety rules when we put a standoff on a ladder and place it on a roof. The angle will seldom ever be correct.

Less yap yap.  More visit the link and watch the Flash in the upper left.

http://ksq2.homestead.com/

It's for CAT adjusters, and it's very reasonably priced.  If you know the stuff presented there, there'll be a lot less pucker factor and fewer guys wishing they had used real standoffs approved for the roof, versus stabilizers meant to keep you a distance from vertical.

I agree that basic training is simple, and I understand the point about over-certification, etc.  However, there'll be something in Mike's cert suggestion, that only took a few minutes, that'll jog the memory when you're out there.  To me, stuff like this is well worth a review now and then.

(Someone show this old boy how to spell "stabilizer" please ...)

It may be silly if you had just that alone, but if you have a compilation of safety-related creds, as Bruce has, it may show dedication to the industry beyond that of just some guy spraying soap on a roof.

Here's "Chris" showing everyone how easy it is.

Hate to burst your bubble but that isn't dedication to our industry. I believe he had to get those for the railroad.

David, OCD?  LOL!

I was hoping you wouldn't split that hair.

Professionalism and skill were the case in point.

Listing the safety credentials seemed beneficial to Bruce, and also to Mike.  I agree with them.

I understand you believe it isn't something worthwhile.

I don't need a safety course to tell me that. It's called common sense. I just watched on tv "Dumbest things on wheels". I saw some really really stupid things done on a bicycle. I don't need a safety class to tell me not to do something that stupid. Here is a pic of 2 low life pukes trying to steal copper. I don't need an electrical safety certificate to tell me not to do that. But I do understand there are some people out there that do...lol

 My opinion is Bruce should take those certificates off his web site. If I was a customer and saw those certs. for Hazmat Emergency response. I wouldn't hire him. I would think he is bringing and using Hazardous chemicals on my property. I wouldn't want hazardous material to even enter the mind of my customer. JMHO

That's gonna hurt!

If you hadn't said two I wouldn't have seen the second guy -- all but ashes and sneakers.  zzzzzt! 

I enjoyed that one a little too much!  We had some copper theft here, and one's mind wanders as to suitable punishment.

That be it!
