At my last job, a couple of the employees attended some kind of disaster preparedness or recovery (I'm really not sure which) seminar.  Upon their return one of them knowing that I am heavily involved with Scouting said something to me about being CPR Trained and being the person in the office that knew it. I let them know that I was not CPR trained but if the company wanted to help pay for me to attend the training (it's less than $100), I'd be happy to take the time and get trained.  It's just not a requirement to be a Scout leader and it's not something that I've done yet. The reaction was kind of "Well when you get trained, let us know and we'll use you as our CPR person".  A few more times over the next several months the topic came up again, and my answer was always the same, "Help pay for it, and I'd be happy to do it".  I just wasn't going to go do it because they asked me to, at my expense so that they could claim that they had someone CPR trained in their office, seemed like that was a situation where they gained more than I did.  Of course, after being laid off and then being asked to other things at no cost, it shouldn't have surprised me, but it did. Another thing that I suggested was that the office really should get an AED device.  There wasn't one there and in my opinion, there needed to be one.  I was literally laughed at and mocked for making such a suggestion, on several occasions. Now I realize that they aren't cheap, but I also know that they save lives.  I was told that everyone working there was young and in good shape and that such a device wasn't needed and even if someone did happen to have an issue that the Fire Department was just minutes away.  After that I told my wife that if I just happened to have a heart attack while working there and died, that she should look into her legal options. So while watching the news tonight I had a huge smile on my face when I saw thisreport.  I don't know the details of the ordinance, and this company isn't located in South Jordan (they are literally only a few blocks away though), but it's good to see that some people are taking things like this seriously. And for the record, my new company does have one and I know exactly where it is located just in case it's needed.  The funny thing is it's within 20 feet of the vending machines.
