long time ago i worked in the Escom factory. We all wore anti-ESD lab coats,
and heel straps, which go around the heel of your shoe, and have a little
conductive strap to tuck into your sock. This requires a conductive floor
obviously.. of cousre the factory floor was tiled with ceramic blocks. Ah...
only Escom.
