Hard hats.A good idea on a work site, especially where a building is being demolished. How many hard hats did I see at 318 Christian Way today?
None.
The operator of the weapon of mass destruction wasn't wearing one, although he did wear a mask to protect his own lungs from the dust of the demolition.
The workers with the tractor-trailer, there to haul away debris, weren't wearing hard hats, not even when working on top of the loaded debris or between the truck and the piece of construction equipment that was killing Grace Hall.
And Quinn Keefe certainly wasn't wearing a hard hat. I wonder how well his baseball cap would have protected his noggin.
Did you know that Quinn works for Gavers Excavating?
When I asked the cop on duty why Quinn was inside the construction fence, he told me that Quinn had told him that he works for Gavers. I thought maybe he was there to buy or sell the lot, since a truck with Realtor Kim Keefe's name on it was parked right on Christian Way. That's probably a truck for which a business tax deduction is taken; hmmm, why was Quinn driving it today?

Does Gavers Excavating know that he works for them? I called them to find out. When I asked for Quinn, the woman who answered the phone hesitated and then said, "I know him, but he doesn't work here."
Is Gavers Excavating concerned at all about OSHA? What the heck? Does OSHA even apply in Woodstock? Some people would probably say it does.
What would happen to Gavers' workers comp and liability insurance premiums, if the insurance company realized that people on the site did not wear hard hats or were on the site with no real need to be?

Oh, well. OSHA probably doesn't even know where Woodstock is.
