[QUOTE="km3, post: 3805621, member: 56117"] Exactly. My couch is less than 70 lbs, but it's big and awkward enough that it could take anyone out if they slipped or lost their grip on it or something. And the line as to what is too heavy for one person to handle had to be drawn somewhere, the company and the union settled on "over 70." I always ask for help for anything over 70. It's easier for me, being a part-timer inside, since help is always available, but I never handle the over 70s alone knowing that [B]if something happens, management will ask "why didn't you ask for help?" [/B] They berate and harass you for refusing to work unsafely until you get hurt, and then every safety related protocol they hated you for following before becomes their ammunition to, at the very best, make you feel like dirt. At worst, to fire you for being unsafe. [/QUOTE]
