Seconded. Long sleeves and gloves are far more often a safety
hazard than a safety solution. If you are in my shop you have your sleeves at or above the elbow and the only time you get to use gloves is for moving sheet metal and cleaning chips off the machines at the end of the day. I work in a shop and own NO shorts, at all, even on days it's 110F out. I don't like getting chip burns on my legs or in my boots(this is the worst).
