Never Use This Wire! | Kinks and Inspection Checklist

Hello, everyone.

This is Enta.

Quotes for next fiscal year are coming in one after another.

I don't know which ones will turn into work, but I want to do as much as I can.

Lately, I've been getting more private-sector work, and it's kind of fun lol.


But that's beside the point.

Be sure to never use rusty wire!

And let's cut off the defective wire so it can't be used.

By doing so, you can prevent anyone from using it, thereby preventing secondary disasters.

Let's be extra mindful of safety this week and next week!

 

See you later.
