I'm sure it is apparent to many the apparent lack of worker safety and this is even more so apparent to me given 15 years of experience in the construction industry.
However, I saw something today that really bothered me as I was driving down the road today in Santiago - some young guy in his 20's stick welding with out protective glasses. It's incredible that they don't provide protective glasses and/or teach these young kids that they can severly damage their eyes or go outright blind welding without protecting their eyes.
Because of this when I see some fellow doing this I typically stop and let them know that I'm an engineer and that they should use eye protection if they don't want to go blind and they usually take heed. So if you're in the mood to do a good deed if you see some guy doing this let them know.
