Desiree is undertaking a minor remodel at her house in Manila. She enlisted the help of a carpenter she has used previously. He lives under a nearby bridge, which is considerably better than it sounds.
The carpenter knows his stuff
and is reliable. I would go so far as to
call him a craftsman. Just the same, I
am always amazed by the attire of the carpenter and his come-and-go helpers
when Desiree sends me photographic progress reports.
While working, everyone wears
shorts and sandals. One worker from a
previous project was often barefoot.
After seeing the barefoot worker, I started referring sandals as “safety
sandals.”
Better than barefoot.
This is not my first exposure to
safety sandals. For many years, I have
been using a photograph of some “electrical safety sandals” in my safety
training courses.
Posted today are photographs of
safety sandals at work.
