- Sir, I have been working here at The Stockpile Sation for 2 weeks now, and I have yet to receive my safety equipment. It is too risky to continue working here without it
- Oh yes, I do remember you are on my list for needing safety equipment. I went to management to remind them about who needs what kind of gear and they have been slow to respond.
- John, who has not received a helmet since he started working at The Stockpile Station, has enquired with the shop steward that he needs the safety gear but Rob, their shop steward, has been telling her that she is working on it and that management has been slow to respond to his request.
