It really needs dead man's switches on both foot rests and handle bars and also rotors that cut off immediately when one of those switches is disengaged.

But like he said, they had to cut unnecessary weight.

If they added safety features, he wouldn't be able to wear his tie as he bounced onto the rotors.

Probably not OSHA since it isn't at work, but I found this in my apartment bathroom last night. Left an emergency maintenance message for my landlord as soon as I found it, and cut off the power at the breakers. Wanted to warn my neighbors but didn't want to get shot as I live in a poor area and it was 2 am. Tried calling the office today(they never answer, or even are there unless its rent paying day), went up there, door was locked but I was holding the rent check in my hand so the lady magically appeared out of nowhere to let me in. She said their voicemail wasn't working and only acted like I was a burden when I explained the ongoing fire hazard. So far they haven't done poo poo to fix anything today and I'm staying at a friends.

Next time if there's some nasty screw-up that's not fixed in a reasonable period of time, you may be able to hold your rent in escrow with your local court until they fix the problem, especially if it's a serious safety issue you've documented. Check your state/municipality's applicable laws on this. (I would only do that as a last resort as it's a very provocative move. I'd only pull that if you're not planning on staying there in the long run.)

I thought about it, but I just wound up paying the rent. I'd assumed since it was a fire hazard they'd get on top of it, but last time I called the office for an update she said they were dealing with a broken A/C right now, so apparently it's not that high on their priority list right now.

it's true, but like I said I already gave them the rent. It was a money order so I can't cancel it. And I'm hoping even worse case, it's definitely fixed by next month.

That varies a lot by jurisdiction. In my state you have to have 2 years residence, 90 days non compliance and there's an annual limit that isn't a month's rent for anything but the shadiest country hovel.

Protip: "definitely fixed by next month" isn't your worst case; it's your best case. Your worst case is that it's not fixed, and on top of that, something catches fire.

You can goon in a well about it, or you can start making phone calls and consulting your city office.

Depending on the terms of your lease and local ordinance you may be able to break the contract. I would check the lease and quote any provision allowing you to break the lease if they don't maintain livable conditions.

The arrangements will affect 15 military and civilian staff working their regular shifts at a communications centre at National Defence headquarters over the May long weekend. The building will be without electricity as part of regular maintenance.

Generators will be used to temporarily power the communications systems, which is used to keep in touch with overseas military missions.

The workers will be issued with headlamps and batteries so they can find their way around the darkened building. A floodlight will be used to illuminate one area of the communications centre.

“Without electricity, the fire alarms and suppression system will not work but it is also nearly impossible there will be an electrical fire,” a Canadian Forces officer told staff in an email.

The workers on the 11th floor won’t have access to water or toilets during the shutdown because of low water pressure.

They will be given bottled water. Toilets up to the sixth floor of the building will continue to function.

“This is absolutely ridiculous,” said John MacLennan, national president of the Union of National Defence Employees. “Everything about this violates every health and safety law there is.”
