What’s up, everybody! Here are JETLAG RADIO 197 & BENKYO RADIO 197! The DNC Convention is taking place right now. You can watch the coverage, but just remember, at the end, you still need to vote. That means voting by mail, by filling out your voting ballot when it comes in the mail, then going to drop-off ballot location. Don’t mail through regular mail, since our beloved President Trump is using his influence to mess with mailboxes. Stay calm, because the FBI is still monitoring the situation (not to be confused with The Situation from MTV’s Jersey Shore), and any attempt to mess with the Election will be punished severely, whether now or later. Bernie Sanders made a great speech. Michelle Obama made a great speech. Barack Obama released a new music playlist. That’s nice. Maybe he could support Medicare For All finally? Or has he been threatened by Big Pharma? Bernie Sanders cannot be the only one on the subject matter.

I’d like to focus this blogpost on THERMAL WORK LIMIT (TWL). As I mentioned in a recent blogpost, it is hot as hell. Well, it’s gonna get hotter and hotter. Therefore, please, if you are a construction project manager, you must put extra effort and make sure all your construction workers have access to water, not just here and there, but for their entire shift. Don’t mess around. Hydration is important. Breaks are important. The same goes for Firefighters, they must stay hydrated. They are working long hours, and need water.

I want to thank USDOT, CalTrans & PG&E for cutting down many trees near Powerlines on the countryside in Folsom, CA. This will prevent wildfires. Good job.

Until next time!
