And most dad's have jobs that take them away for up to half a day and the family stays together.... Should be thankful of the fact they get to travel with him to work and watch him work. Don't worry tho, as soon as a kid gets killed the insurance companies will make the choice for you....... Kids don't need to be with a parent if that parent is at work and in a dangerous location....... we're not being unfair to anyone, we're being honest with our thoughts and feelings just like she was.....
EXACTLY!!!!!!!!!
OSHA would flip their wig if my wife brought my kids on a jobsite to watch me work!!
Hey kids, come into this factory and sit here on a chair 5' from me while I'm in working in this hot 1600amp switch gear...remember, don't touch 'the shiny parts', and watch out for the fork lifts. And hey, stay away from the machines while they're running!
Yeah, no distractions there
Mrs. Coons should be happy that she can sit in the stands with the little one and watch Jerry work. My wife and kids have never been allowed to watch me do my job -because it's too dangerous for them to be there-!!
