OSHA at work. Last month, there was a fire at work caused by some idiot roofer contractors and the details of the incident were finally released -Contractors did not sign in -Contractors did not have a Hot Work Permit -Contractors did not do the actual job correctly -Contractors did not have a fire extinguisher within easy access -Instead of notifying the fire department, our VP told people to not call 911 and instead went over to the building next door and told them to not call 911 -Fire department should have been notified, but they weren't (They never found out about this incident) -Contractors are really stupid Then there was another incident a week later, again caused by idiot contractors -Contractors were told to not mess with the air compressor, then messed with the air compressor -Messing with the compressor caused the compressor and the Nitrogen backup to fail -At this point, all our sensors falsely read that we had no water flow and triggered the fire alarm. We had water flow, but no air flow -Fire marshal showed up. He hates us wooooo

We had to put ours under lock and key because we were incapable of not playing with it constantly. Also, I was able to take it home and see how horrible my windows are at retaining heat. drat, old houses suck at energy efficiency.

The guy looks suspiciously like Wesley from Last of The Summer Wine, which is (or was) basically a retirement home for old British character and comic actors, and relied heavily on this sort of dumb physical comedy (although interspersed it with some remarkably poignant observations about aging and death).

Some light-hearted OSHA where nobody died: 1st Incident: Security company refused to let through a gate an Ambulance with lights and sirens because they weren't called from a specific number about this. Instead of using the automatic gate they told the factory staff to use the gate manually (turn the motor to OFF, push the gate aside) so that they wouldn't be held accountable in case this wasn't a real emergency but some sort of a scam. End Result: Meetings held with the security contractor about not being idiots. 2nd Incident, another factory site: Fire Department, again with lights and sirens, enters the perimeter and promptly gets lost since the person showing directions jumped into the lead vehicle which the sped off around a corner. Rest of the convoy lost sight and that was that. End Result: Revisiting emergency protocols about giving directions. I had a more detailed OSHA story here but its kinda "often-violent accident porn" so i'm withholding it.

Then it turned out the "cops" were just crooks in disguises who then cleaned out millions of dollars worth of art. Deteriorata fucked around with this message at 18:10 on May 27, 2016 |

Gotta get some of them 2-3 tonne paper rolls in a van somehow. I'm ruling out industrial espionage because no, just no.

Otherwise, when they left to go to the hospital the entire time they were on that trip the event would have to halt because they would be without a medic team. So really, I guess you'd want at least 2 ambulances on site or like an ambulance and an EMT suv

So really, I guess you'd want at least 2 ambulances on site or like an ambulance and an EMT suv Another ambulance isn't going to be dispatched. As far as the emergency operator is concerned, there is a crew and a vehicle on scene. If an ambulance crew decided a patient required hospital treatment and needed to be taken there by ambulance, but refused to transport them, then that crew is clinically liable for whatever happens to that patient. You're asking people to risk their careers because their patient probably won't die or suffer long-term harm. Most of the kit in the ambulance is one-time use or is limited in supply. They're paying for a fully-stocked ambulance, and if the Oxygen tank only holds 30 minutes' worth, as soon as you hook someone up to it, then technically the organiser no longer has the fully-stocked ambulance. The only way is for them to get what they pay for is to refuse to treat anyone at all.

And on the pedantic etymology side, 'ambulance' implies transport, as in ambulation, rather than care.

Does anyone have handy the link to the blog of a guy who bought a house (I swear it was Minneapolis or somewhere in Minnesota) that turned out to be a huge con job between the flipper and real estate agent, and he spent 18+ months writing about his experiences finding all the crazy poo poo he found and had to fix, including: -Support posts removed from the basement -Coax cables that only went about 6" into the wall -Vent trim made out of paint sticks -Hilariously, hilariously terrible wiring jobs (that he should have used as an excuse why his house 'suddenly' burned to the ground, after his lawyer told him only a miracle would bring him any legislative justice against the people who sold it to him) -A basement that flooded multiple times due to inadequate exterior drainage, which he tried to resolve with shop vacs (and ended up burning out the motors on at least 3) -A can of Great Stuff exploding in the newly-fixed master bedroom, covering the walls, brand new carpet, all his tools And on and on. My google-fu is failing me on this one, but I know it was originally posted in one of the old OSHA threads. Bonus OSHA story, while googling 'house blog great stuff can exploded', I found this: http://www.courthousenews.com/2014/02/19/65446.htm quote:Crouch says he followed the directions and "shook the can four to five times and its spontaneously exploded, violently striking plaintiff in the abdomen and the contents of the spray can lodged itself all over Mr. Crouch's face, nasal cavity and lodged inside his right ear. The product began expanding inside Mr. Crouch's nose and right ear canal while clinging to his hair and clothing."  Edit: Oh hey, nevermind, I found it! http://www.hoodwinkedhouse.com/ Sirotan fucked around with this message at 20:17 on May 28, 2016 |
