You put your right leg in,
You put your right leg out;
You put your right leg in,
And you get it shaken all about as you scream and flail wildly.
You do the hokey pokey,
And you turn yourself inside out.
That's what it's all about!

Wasn't sneaking. Stupid fat hobbits.
Being in ~The Navy~, the concept of a locking device on a tagged component still surprises me. It really floors me that someone would be stupid enough to ignore a tagout when their only purpose is to keep you from breaking poo poo and/or dying.

That said, I recently talked to a civilian who has interviewed with a company in the past year that works on kilovolt systems and had never been exposed to the concept of tagouts or other work controls. Truly terrifying. They wanted him to stand up a LOTO program for their company.

Ridiculous way to test your high-impedance grounded system:

He is touching a grounded conductor to a lug that's live with 277V. The reason there isn't a spectacular explosion is that the system's voltage source (transformer secondary) is referenced to ground via a big resistor to limit the flow of current in a fault.

You loving goons are overreacting to that picture of the fire extinguisher. There's no way it's going to discharge by being used as a door stop. All that's going to happen is that eventually the hose will get worked loose and turn into a projectile when you go to put out a fire, or better yet some numbnut anchored the loving thing to drywall and it'll fall to the floor and break off the valve turning it into a completely harmless 25lb rocket.

It could also lead people trying to close the door to start resenting safety systems.
