"The Goal Is Zero"
heh, I always get a little chuckle out of that - it is plastered on nearly every wall in our DuPont fabricating facility. In short, 'the goal is 0' refers to safety incidents...but we have a fun time joking about "the goal is zero...productivity...creativity...etc Such a huge corporation as DuPont needs to watch out for safety a lot, and because we have engineers from DuPont helping us, that motto gets passed along to us. We recently reenacted our "Days without an incident" sign up near our playing field mock-up
As for a FIRST related injury...this being my second year, the only really serious thing happened last year at nats. A team member had a case of dehydration and went out alone. Not so good...Eventually, found the member who had passed out due to dehydration. obvious tip : go around with friends (mmm mob mentality), and drink lots of water when in florida
