For Safety

Today David gets to go on site for work which is pretty rad considering the last time he went on site it was in Bend and that was a big deal. Now it’s like, WHERE ARE YOU GOING?!?!?! J (Excitement emphasis) Because it’s alllll *NEW*! Anyway, once I got over the jealousy, as he was getting dressed he informed me he doesn’t have to wear steel toed boots down here but he does have to wear slacks. Wool slacks. Wool slacks!? When he got up the courage to ask a couple people at work “Why wool?” they simply replied, “For safety.” Duh? HAHAHA! What the shoots? Wool for safety?! Are we Yanks missing something that you Aussies know? Since when is wool safe?! Safe from the cold? Is it fire retardant? Are you planning on jumping into fire?

I can’t stop laughing!!!! Sorry it’s so funny for me. I guess it just sort of sums up a lot of stuff here that says to us “What the hell” and begs the response “Yea? So?”

Let’s just hope he only needs to be 20% safe. That’s the highest blend we could find.
