Watching a dig site collapse made me rethink my whole approach to trench safety
I was out at a site near Santa Fe last Tuesday when a test pit wall caved in on itself, and the crew lead just shrugged like it was normal. Has anyone else dealt with supervisors who treat basic shoring like optional gear?

Saw a guy at my last dig just kick a loose rock into an open trench to "test" if it was stable. I mean, nobody even had a hard hat on. Maybe it's just me but that felt a little off.
