safety glasses

[eedoga]

I think there is a bigger question here... why the resistance to wearing safety glasses?

Ok...Ive done this myself... your trying to line up to drill a critical hole and you have to lift your crappy safety glasses out of the way to see clearly... when I caught myself doing that I knew it was time to get new goggles.

So I still buy and wear crappy goggles, I just replace them more often, and take more care when putting them down. I even sewed up a nifty goggle sock to put them in.

I am now of the "set it and forget it" mode, where I put them on walking into the venue, and take them off when I leave. (if I remember to take them off that is.)

I have volunteered as safety at a few events, and nothing bothers me more than hearing officials say things like, "don't worry about your safety goggles, its the end of the day, if you are leaving then just leave." Or, " just go to your pit and put on safety goggles, these ones at the goggle stand are for visitors."

Yeah... so if you are representing a team, just treat them like part of your uniform.
