24 August 2006 - Thursday
Orientation continues
Our department had hazardous materials training today. The new history grads (joined by the new geography grads) gathered in a conference room to hear a talk by someone from the university's environmental health office.
What sorts of hazardous materials are handled by history and geography TAs, you ask? Well, mostly Windex and Static Guard, to judge from the lecture. I am happy to report that I now know where to find a material safety data sheet for them both, in case of an emergency.
In fact, I'll show you my lecture notes:
I. Don't sniff the glue.I feel very safe now. | Posted by Wilson at 18:36 Central | TrackBackII. But if you do, be sure to check the material safety data sheet.
III. Wait until a university win to buy your T-shirts. [The bookstore offers discounts based on how well our team scores.]
IV. Watch out for nuclear reactors. [Apparently, a custodial team once ran across one we didn't know we had.]

I love IV (I may have to seriously consider the school now), but you left out “Windex is not to be used in blue snow-cones.”
Did a training video incorporate clips from Big Fat Greek Wedding?

Be sure to let us know when you go to the first televised football game. You can wear a blue LU shirt and maybe a yellow wig. I will watch for you.

Does the bookstore also offer food discounts after games?
