If you're a seasoned Podcast Listener - this podcast is going to be different from most you listen to.  It's based around exactly what the name implies - Warehouse Safety Tips.  And since the people in that industry are busy - we know time is money, so each episode will be as short and to the point as possible.

And now that all that is out of the way - let's get to the Podcast!

Many of the podcasts we come up with mirror our daily lives.  Our podcast today is no different.

I just finished speaking to our daughter, who's attending college all the way across the country.   She's coming home to visit in a few days and asked if we could pay for her to have a carry-on for her flights.  Based on previous flights - I told her she would be permitted a carry-on as part of her ticket price.  I assumed it would be the same for this flight.

Upon checking - I found out they'd changed their policy and my assumption was incorrect.

Have you ever heard what happens when you assume?

Since we keep things Rated PG as possible - let's just say it's not a good practice.  ESPECIALLY when it comes to safety!

Although I JUST told you not to assume when it comes to safety - it's safe to assume that guessing you're right is usually a bad idea.

Examples of this could be:

All of these assumptions - and MANY more not mentioned could all result in anything from minor damage to death.

The point is - it's NOT worth assuming!

Many situations that could have been avoided were things that happened after chances had been taken several times over.   All rules - no matter how trivial they may be perceived - are in place for a reason.  Keep yourself, your fellow employees, and your facility safe and sound by never assuming and following the rules at all times!

Before moving on - here's a word from one of our sponsors.
