Tough show today, way to many accidents relating to elevators and escalators! In the last 243 shows I can't remember covering this many accident articles in one week. As one accident involves our industry loosing a mechanic in NY which again proves that the technicians in our industry earn every penny for the work that they do each day. Think safety each morning you get out of bed. Thanks for tuning in to the program today!
