Hi Pam,

I miss you! Life is kinda boring without the daily grind. Ice fishing is only entertaining for so long, ya' know? Plus the ice is beginning to become terribly unsafe for mere mortals, I haven't been out there for over a week now.

How are you? I hope all is well and you're finally appreciated for your extremely uncommon common sense, intelligence and all the good things you do in the occupational environment. You're something special. Email me sometime, OK?

Jeff

red exit lights vs green exit lights

I am wanting to know  if I should I buy red exit signs or green exit signs? Does OSHA care? Is there one that is more accepted in the mechanic industry? Thanks Mary
