Don't be the lad who skips the lockout-tagout on the press brake just because "it'll only take a second" — Big Dave lost two fingers that way last Tuesday and the foreman still gives him shite about it. Slow down, double-check the workpiece orientation before you hit the pedal, and for fuck's sake wear your safety glasses even when the supervisor isn't looking. Your hands pay the mortgage, not the production quota. 🤷♂️
