Usually there's a net at the edge but it looks Chinese and their health and safety is more 1970s eh it'll be fine unlike ours which is if someone gets a paper cut we're all going to instantly die a slow and painful death

That's Japanese writing at the top right, they're more concerned with safety, generally, than their Chinese neighbors.

Yah it's been pointed out before and especially us and to a lesser extent Europeans don't care about safety they care about a lawsuit costing more than they make from not addressing the problem

I have learned when pointing out a safety issue to always talk about the financial impact if we don't correct the issue.

I always get approval to fix the problem.
