AWC Magazine Collector’s Edition – Issue 5
ISSUE TEASER:
When building your collection of AWC Magazines, you’re not going to want to miss out on this pristine-condition copy of issue number 5. Published in 1987, this edition of American Window Cleaner is brimming with timeless advice that will help you for years to come.
This issue features an announcement of new boatswain chair rules that weren’t all necessarily helpful for high-rise window cleaners. Although following them would prevent huge fines from OSHA and ANSI, they would also limit the use of their current tools of the trade.
Brian Fisk, president of Verified Maintenance in Portland, Oregon, claims, “The proposed code changes are antiquated and designed only to stop certain parts of the industry and do little or nothing to create constructive change in the safety and training level of our industry.” These changes, in fact, demonstrated how little the committee members really knew about the complexities of the profession, believing things like the bosun chair were dangerous when by engineering standards, really weren’t!
ISSUE HIGHLIGHTS:
- An Interview with Valcourt
- “Working Smart” by Unger
- Hilarious cartoons that will still crack you up by Sullivan
