That's Hot


No, this doesn't have anything to do with an overused
phrase by Paris Hilton (who?). It all about Shaun's
parka that caught on fire today. Shaun is a GA (General
Assistant) that today was working on the Water Plant
project. Someone was welding and a spark travelled down
an I-beam and landed on Shaun's Carhartt Parka (Big Brown
to some) while it was lying on the ground. Luckily he
wasn't actually wearing it at the time. It instantly caught
on fire. Apparently our ECW (Extreme Cold Weather) gear is
not flame retardant. It caused a minor hubbub in the Plant,
but the fire was eventually extinguished. His goggles
even melted in the pocket. Luckily there are extra parkas
available. Otherwise Shaun would be starting fires every
day just to stay warm
