Glancing through local newspaper strikes me to google more about safety. Almost never miss, everyday, there are news about catastrophic accidents that takes away life.
We are still alive, is it because we are really safe, or merely pure luck? Imagine “Now you see, now you don’t” scenario happens not on cookies BUT to a real person, someone that attached to us closely.
Can we prevent it? Can we draw a different outcome? Is safety a corporate gimmick or they really care for their employees?
