A few years ago we were required to have a safety person going around making sure everything was safe, so we picked a guy that seemed OK and there was a safety meeting. He gets everyone together and at the beginning of the meeting before anything else was said try's to get everyone to cheer "safety first!!" He was walking around almost pleading to get everyone to do it. Everyone just looked at each other and rolled their eyes. Nobody cheered "safety first!!" The title went to his head and nobody cared what he had to say afterwards. We wasted an hour getting 15 shop workers together and later he was labeled a dork.
Nobody saw that coming. He seemed like the right person for the job at the time.
He ain't heavy, he's my brother.
