Fire Extinguishers!
Hi everyone!
Not all of us have had the chance to use a fire extinguisher in real life, but these devices are important safety equipment. Using them to put out small fires can save lives!
That being said, arranging training on how to use them properly can be challenging.
So, we thought we would revive a previous post from our team (employee) website that included a training video — click here to check out the video, and please share with others!
Is there specific training you think would be helpful to have? Let us know in the comments!

It’s the Winter Solstice!
Today (December 21st) is the Winter Solstice, which is officially the “shortest” day of the year!
While today marks the least amount of daylight we see for the year here in the Northern Hemisphere, it also means that the nighttime is the longest of the year. Close to the North Pole, there is darkness 24 hours a day! Here is a picture that shows how that works: https://goo.gl/images/1paZiy
The opposite of the Winter Solstice is the Summer Solstice, which will be on June 21st. When it is time for the Summer Solstice at the North Pole, there is daylight for 24 hours a day!
If you want to learn more about how the Winter and Summer Solstices work, you can check out this YouTube video:
