People say that construction is dangerous work. I never felt that way. I know there are hazards involved, but I've always felt if you take the necessary precautions, unless there is some freak occurance, you'll be safe. I don't know the details of what happened yet, but I'm getting ready to go into work and my roommate tells me he just heard on the news that someone fell off one of the bridges on my project. This is the second accident like this since I started on this job in February. The first was fatal, someone fell from the slope paving beneath a bridge and landed on his head. I hope the person who fell today is okay. Actually I kinda hope it was a pedestrian that walked around the barricades. Whether it was a worker or not I hope the person is ok. Maybe I should rethink the way I feel about whether or not the job is dangerous. I guess all I can really do is pay attention and look out for myself and those around me.
