Hate to be 'that guy', but...

Disappointed that the officer had to go to Walmart to buy a shovel.

1. What kind of a man doesn't have 20 shovels at his house that he has NO idea where they came from?!

The type that is doing something nice while on the clock and Walmart is 5 min away and home is 60 min away.
 
The funny thing that most people don't know, is that fiberglass is just as deadly as asbestos. The only difference, is there were no warnings with asbestos and fiberglass had 10,000 warnings as to it's danger.
I work around both daily, I agree fiberglass is just as bad. You just don’t hear about it as much.

My father in law died of asbestosis while working for Bethlehem Steel. The family lawyer and I got to talking at one of the court proceedings. He said that fiberglass is only allowed to be used because of all of the warnings on the packaging and data sheets. He also said that the asbestos lawsuit would pale in comparison to fiber class lawsuits if they were allowed to proceed. He fought for years trying to get fiberglass and asbestos treated as the same danger but lost that argument.

Sorry about your FIL, I make all our guys wear masks and long sleeves when insulating, we subcontract most of it out anymore, I grew up doing a lot of it with my father. asbestos, obviously we don’t touch, that all has to be abated by professionals. $$$$. I figure one day the Fiberglass lawsuites will start rolling in. Just a matter of time
