Default hearing loss

There has been some talk of hearing protection and such. But sometimes the
effects are overlooked.

I have been working at a reno this week and a crew of 2 hardwood floor
installers showed up to install parkay flooring ( glue down ).

They worked with a small table saw ( no guard ) and no hearing protection. One
even was wearing a ring all day.

One of the installers was in his early 30 and both had the radio playing LOUD.
But to them it wasn't loud at all. And you had to speak loudly to have a
converstion with them.

Wear your protective gear and take safety precautions seriously.
