经典回顾：一个关于安全的故事
经典回顾：一个关于安全的故事安全永无止境
故事里只有两个人：“我”和Randy.
那天，“我”发现Randy踩着梯子登高处理一个内部带压的阀门。登高没系安全带，系统内带压维修作业，都违背了安全规定。“我”本想制止，可又怕他不高兴，引起争吵。再一想，这又不是第一次了，过去从来没出过事，他已经驾轻就熟了。所以，“我”没有制止，而是摇了摇头，走开了。“我”刚刚离开现场，系统内的气体突然喷出，正在作业的Randy从高空摔下身亡。
主观上说，这是Randy的过错，可是，“我”痛苦地说：“那天，本来我可以挽救一个生命，但是，我却选择了视而不见。”
这是“我”的切身体会，是用生命换来的血的教训，从而也给我们每一个人敲响了警钟。
I Chose To Look The Other Way我选择了视而不见
（作者Don Merrell，从事安全工作40年，写下大量关于安全的诗篇。）
I could have saved a life that day,那天我本可以拯救一个生命，
But I chose to look the other way.但是我却选择了视而不见。
It wasn’t that I didn’t care,并非我没有发现，
I had the time, and I was there.我就在现场,并且我有时间。
But I didn’t want to seem a fool,只是我不想像个傻瓜，
Or argue over a safety rule.为一个安全的规则而喋喋不休。
I knew he’d done the job before;我知道他以前做过这个工作；
If I spoke up he might get sore.如果我出言指责，他一定会大发脾气。
The chances didn’t seem that bad;并且，事情看起来也没那么危险；
I’d done the same, he knew I had.我以前也这样干过，这他也知道。
So I shook my head and walked on by;所以，我摇摇头走开了；
He knew the risks as well as I.他应当和我一样明白其中的风险。
He took the chance, I closed an eye;他铤而走险，我却睁一只眼闭一只眼；
And with that act, I let him die.正因为如此，我眼睁睁的看着他死去。
I could have saved a life that day,那天我本可以拯救一个生命，
But I chose to look the other way.但我却选择了视而不见。
Now every time I see his wife,如今我每次看到他的太太，
I know I should have saved his life.我都会自责未能挽救他的生命。
That guilt is something I must bear;我心中永远承受那份愧疚；
But it isn’t something you need share.希望这种感觉你不会拥有。
If you see a risk that others take,如果你看到别人在冒风险，
That puts their health or life at stake,拿他们的健康或生命在做试验，
The question asked or thing you say;只需责问一句或提醒一番，
Could help them live another day.就能帮他们活过明天。
If you see a risk and walk away,如果你看见别人铤而走险，而你却置之不理，
Then hope you never have to say,但愿你永远别说：
“I could have saved a life that day,“我那天本可以拯救一个生命，
But I chose to look the other way.”但我却选择了视而不见。”
