This week we are in the classroom doing safety. It's pretty hard for me to listen to all the fatal or near fatal incidents that could happen to me so I tend to eat or preoccupy myself with making a drawing so that I don't barf while listening to the million of ways I might accidentally end my precious life.
It was another day where I feel that the sum of my learning experiences have paid off. I'm so glad that I am not learning everything for the first time...I've done WHMIS, I've spilled acid on my leg, filled out the msds and called hazmat. I've talked to the calm voice on the other end with a heavy southern draw telling me to remove my pants. I've been to chemistry and learned that hydrochloric acid will burn your skin, and the shirt off your teachers back...And you would be surprised at the number of chemicals I read about that frequent beauty products and soaps.
It turns out that my dad isn't the only guy who likes to recall the many jobs hes had in life. My teacher sat back with a smile as he claimed how he had been on top of the world at the age of 16 with a job. Who needed school? He speaks softly and has trouble hearing..he has a hearing aid but he said its at home in drawer...also he once rode a wrecking ball and was probably one of the last people to do so... I was able to stay awake all day, only four more to go.
Oh yeah, I forgot you were in Mr. Moxey's class with us.
