cainchapman 0 Report post Posted March 11, 2008 As I had a laugh about this with Simon earlier and I'm still chuckling. I'll share. Anyway, one of the most bizarre requests for me came through today. Here's a rough transcript. "Good morning, Scott Health & Safety, Cain speaking" "Hi, it's Lisa from NZ Safety. I have a Policeman standing in front of me wanting to know which filter he should use for Tear Gas." "Pardon?" "He needs to get 10 canisters to suit your masks to be used with Tear Gas, they are not the same as the ones they use for the Clan lab jobs" "OK, can I speak to him please" Anyway, the rest of the conversation was that he was looking for our Mil Spec filters that for some reason, we don't sell over the counter. They did have something suitable and he went away a happy man. However, I'm just a little concerned that instead of using the specialists and sorting this kind of requirement through a Central Store. They head down to the Safety equivalent of Woolworths and ask the lady at the counter for something to do the job. Maybe, we need to get a few Tazers on their shelf too. "Better work stories!"
