[QUOTE="jmeti000, post: 991043, member: 35738"] Ive worked DG and like everyone says, its not something you take your chances on...especially with spills. Think of how many people try to skate by without paying the extra DG charges and just throw their junk in any old box declaring its not DG. We had a box leak all over once and after getting it back to the haz. cage and opening it up we found out it was breast milk. I was going to get out a BF/BBP kit to protect myself. The other DG agent thought I was crazy and just picked it all up and threw it in a bag to contain it, however upon doing so he splashed that nastyness all over me. Now, I have nothing against breast milk, but considering you dont know who it came from, why it was being shipped, etc. I personally didnt want to take any chances...needless to say I was a little pissed. Dont EVER let anyone tell you you dont need to take precautions or pay attention when someone thinks your crazy for doing so...in the end its your health, and your life. And just my opinion, but this job is at the top of my list of those in which the employee is not compensated at fair market value for the work they do and the risks they take. [/QUOTE]
