• Label tools requiring certification

 John is making progress throughout the hive - let him know if you see a tool that should be labeled.

 No changes - discussion on warden requirements for warden hours  Amphay to consider helping welding certification.  Discussed bringing this back (regular hours) but acknowledge that not all wardens have availability/necessity. Acknowledged classes count towards hours.  Would be nice to figure out a means to notifying individuals when someone requests a certification. 1. Action: Ralph to setup a brief tutorial on how to setup slack to notify/ping whenever “certify” or “certification” is mentioned in a specific channel.
