how safe are you when you do stuff around the house. I suck at it I was outside cutting trees with a chainsaw wearing shorts no gloves,no hat, no goggles no Kevlar chaps nothing . But at work it's safety first but at home it was only recently I began wearing safety goggles some time. It's like a split personality of something I know all the OSHA rules too. How about everyone else?

I've sonmetimes stick a knife into the toaster to get the toast out but nt all the time
I don't wear googles to do that
-
I'm bizarrely overly safe to the point where I've never broken or sprained anything, never electrocuted myself or gotten harmfully burned or cut. Never quite figured it out - I was a chickenshit little kid and the stupidly safety-conscious aspect of that seems to have stuck without my ever trying.
-
I work with some very dangerous equipment though
-
I have the tendency to rush in when others are fleeing :laugh:
-
I tend to be overly cautious, mainly because I am so accident prone it isn't even funny. :P
-
I hurt myself sleeping. :P
-
I routinely unplug drill motors, Dremels and Porta Bands etc before changing tips or bits. I have 4 eyes anyway so I only put on supplementary eye protection where needed. I have been working Flight Lines, Heavy Industry and shooting guns for over 30 years so I am pretty good with hearing protection although I have lost some hearing at the high end.

I was always the sort of kid who didn't jump from the treehouse or hold onto the lit fireworks, and who always saw the point of wearing a bicycle helmet, but although I've never broken or sprained anything, I've been burned and cut plenty of times. Burns and cuts don't bother me; it's only more serious injuries that I worry about. I also take precautions like wearing nitrile gloves while soldering, so that I don't get lead on my hands, and I'm happy to put on a dust mask or goggles whenever they're appropriate to the situation.
Despite this, my mum for many years kept telling people that I had a poor sense of danger, and it's only recently, after repeatedly correcting her, that she seems to be getting it into her head that I'm actually a very cautious person, and always have been.

I've been cut plenty, just not in a major way. Even the time I split one of my fingernails on a scroll saw in shop class, it didn't even bleed.
-
I have to chase everyone out of the kitchen when I'm cooking. Otherwise I cut myself, burn myself, spill things, and let pots boil over while trying to listen/talk to whoever is there. Can not multitask, not at all.
-
I'm incredibly dangerous sex machine :hotrodder:
-
I used to work with water and electricity. :o If it weren't for trip switches, I would have been dead a hundred times over.
-
Unlike some in my trade I have never been hit with anything harder than 120 volts. But 120 hurts enough that I don't want to get hit with 277 or 480 volts.

Safety is spelled with an e :P
I tend to be a bit fluid with my safety measures...It depends on what I'm doing really...
-
parts has his own unique spelling system. :)
I am not scared of heights at all, so I have probably been a bit unsafe in that regard.
