Yeah, it only takes one experience to completely cement the use of PPE. You can always tell when someone has never had an accident, because they complain about wearing their PPE, or neglect to wear it at all. In contrast, the people who have been saved by PPE will wear it without complaint. Every. Single. Time.

Sort of like wearing your seatbelt. You don’t need it until suddenly you do.
