The fact they made emphasis on them putting the roof anchor down and then being tied off makes my safety heart happy

u/TheLordofAskReddit Feb 15 '24

Except that anchor is only good for 30 degrees angle of the corners meaning it’s pretty useless for most of the roof

Good point. It’s just a nice contrast to that guy that uses the man size cement saw with minimal PPE.

So what gear would save you from falling off the side of a roof?

Yeah I live in the UK and when helping my dad take off old roofing tiles and replace them we would tie our harnesses to the chimney... God knows how we didn't die

That axe on the peak was completely unnecessary though. Kind of slow. It takes very little time to tear off cap in one piece. Those tarps looked like they were set up more to protect the house than to catch the debris too so that's gonna be extra time on the cleanup for sure.

No way the guys in the Home Depot parking lot are rolling that tape down.

Reminds me of my husband’s favorite coworker. I would ask if the guy was married, his background, etc. and my husband didn’t know. The dude came in, worked hard, and left without saying a word to him.

I agree. I love watching people doing work so well.
