VIDEO: Have a nice day, now!

September 12, 2016
We’ve all had bad days at the office. But sometimes, as in the case of heavy equipment operators, your office is a rather large machine, the ‘bad’ can be disastrous at the least and fatal at the worst.

So, drive safely today. And have a nice day, now!
