And hearing protection? Unheard of.

I’ve noticed that the grounds crew in The Villages working on lawns and such wear hearing and eye protection when mowing, blowing, etc. Also, pretty much all of them seem to keep almost all skin covered all year ‘round, to protect from skin cancer, I suppose. They also wear highly-visible shirts and use traffic cones.
