Always do the same - leave the floor jack in place even though I have a
couple jack stands in place. Better safe than sorry. Long ago, in my
youthful naove days, I had the stock Datsun jack holding up the car on
one side. Of course, it slipped and the roadster came crashing down.
Against the garage door jamb, denting the side of the car. That was the
last time I used the stock jack.

It's the painful way I avoid as I am afraid of being under a car despite
crawling under them since 15. Not only do I jack the car with a floor
jack,
but I prop it up with two stands and still leave the floor jack in
place.
That's okay as I wear goggles, gloves, jeans and steel tip boots when
using
the lawnmower.
