Fireworks Safety During Diwali

Fireworks Safety During Diwali
Happy Diwali
Safety Measures during the festival of lights

Dos & Don'ts While Bursting Crackers

Dos
  • Use fireworks only outdoor.
  • Buy fireworks of authorized/reputed manufacturers only.
  • Light only one firework at a time by only person. Others should watch from a safe distance.
  • Keep the fireworks at a safer place.
  • Organize a community display of fireworks rather than individuals handling crackers.
  • Always use a long candle/'phooljhari' for igniting fire crackers and keep elbow joint straight to increase the distance between the body and the crackers.
  • Keep two buckets of water handy. In the event of fire, extinguish flame by pouring water from the buckets. Every major fire is small when it starts.
  • In case of burns, pour large quantity of water on the burnt area.
  • In case of major burns, after extinguishing the fire, remove all smoldering clothes. Wrap the victim in a clean bedsheet.
  • The patient should be taken to a burns specialist or a major hospital. Don't panicky.
  • In case of eye burns, wash the eye with tap water for 10 minutes and take the victim to a hospital.

Don'ts 

  • Don't ignite fireworks while holding them.
  • Don't bend over the fireworks being ignited.
  • Don't ignite fireworks in any container.
  • Don't approach immediately to the misfired fireworks.
  • Don't tamper with misfired fireworks.
  • Don't attempt to make fireworks at home.
  • Don't allow small children to handle fireworks.
  • Don't throw or point fireworks at other people.
  • Don't carry fireworks in the pocket.
  • Don't store firecrackers near burning candles and diyas.
  • Don't light firecrackers in narrow by lanes; preferably use open areas and parks.
  • Don't wear synthetic clothing; preferably wear thick cotton clothing.
  • Don't wear loosely hanging clothes; secure all clothes properly.
  • Don't apply any cream or ointment or oil on burnt area.
  • Don't drive recklessly while taking a burn victim to the hospital; a delay of up to one hour is immaterial.

Best Friend

Who is Best Friend?
                              

The most beautiful thing

The most beautiful thing


Maid

This is the maid 
Maid

guy dials his home and a strange woman answers.

The guy says, "
Who is this?"

"This is the maid," answers the woman. 

"We don't have a maid," says the man.
The woman says, "I was hired this morning by the woman of the house."

The man says, "Well, this is her husband. Is she there?"

The woman replies, "She is upstairs in the bed room with someone who I figured was her husband." 

The guy is fuming and says to the maid, "
Listen, would you like to make 50,000?"

The maid asks, "What will I have to do?" 

The man tells her, "I want you to get my gun from the desk, and shoot the Bitch and the jerk she's with."

The maid puts the phone down; the man hears footsteps and then two gun shots.

The maid comes back to the phone, "What do I do with the bodies?" 

The man says, "
Throw them in the swimming pool."

Puzzled, the maid answers, "But you don't have a pool." 

A long pause and the man asks, "Oops..! Is this 2261-1382
?" 

Moral: Think before you act/react.
Key words: Moral Stories, this is maid, Maid, Stories to think, personality development, soft skills.
