It's National Tell A Joke Day - Aug. 16.

So here is one that is positively electrifying:

Two atoms are walking down the street.
Atom One says, "Oh No! I've lost an electron!"
Atom Two replies, "Are you sure?"
Atom One says, "Yes, I'm positive!"

Have a great National Tell a Joke Day from all of us at OPD5!

August 10-16 is Safe & Sound Week! We are committed to keeping our employees and communities safe. We devote a lot of resources to it. Every month, our team members from every department gather for a dedicated safety meeting to receive focused training, share real-world safety experiences and learn from one another.

Our simple goal is that everyone goes home safe at the end of every day. That is a commitment we are proud to make - not just this week, but every day.

Today, Aug. 11, is National 811 Day!

Whether you're planting a tree, installing a fence or starting any project that requires digging, play it safe and contact 811 first.

A quick call or online request can help locate underground utility lines, preventing service interruptions, costly repairs and serious injuries.

811 services are free and simple to use. Dig smart, and dig into safety before your project begins.
