that - You & I, on-site at our trucks before the shift starts, spending 5 to 10 minutes together discussing a topic to get our work day started right.

Today, I talk about tools: Do you have all of the tools you need to execute all of your on-site tasks today? When is the last time you went through your kit and did an inventory & resupply?

I mention this article that I wrote a couple of years ago - You can use it as a baseline for your gear check-down.

Have a productive, safe day on-site today - Cheers!!

Connect with me and let me know what you think - Cheers!!
