Re: Tackle that person with no safety glasses

I yelled at our students all the time to get there glasses on. It doesn't matter if you are working on a robot or just sitting in the pits you could still get hurt. You have teams all around you working on their robots. They use dremels, drills, saws, etc. if one of the blades breaks it can travel far! Trust me I've seen it. I've seen broken cut off wheels travel well over 100 feet and tag someone in the chest. It cut thru his apron, shirt and into his skin. He was okay. So I can't say I blame them for being stricked about this. You may thank them the next time something comes and hits your glasses. I have to wear saftey glasses every day and I am happy to wear them. My saftey glasses get hit at least once a day with something and let me tell you, you can't move fast enough. This is one of the most important saftey rules they have. So I guess I don't see what the problem is. If you are in the pits others are working even if you aren't so put on your glasses. If you say they hurt or they make me sweaty then just talk to someone who lost their eye and see what they say.
