it just really bothers me, especially the gun incidents. It seems impossible to fathom. But it seems clear that safety was not taken seriously by some on this project. Its too bad they cant have a do over. Thats why safety needs to be prioritized, thats why there are laws and regulations and fines. Because this is serious stuff. I have worked in manufacturing chemical industry my whole life and been fortunate to work in environments where safety was prioritized. But even there accidents happen. People lose fingers, are seriously burned, equipment can fall, there are many hazards.
Once I attended a safety meeting and a guest speaker was someone who worked at a chemical plant loading trucks. He was horribly burned in an accident. A very intelligent man who was trying to do his job right. But one day he took a safety shortcut. So he gives talks about the importance of following safety rules now.
I wish the families of the victims and all the other people involved some peace and strength so they can go on with their lives and not be permanently affected.
