Florida man crushed to death by pallets of mushroomsquote:A Florida man was crushed to death by pallets of mushrooms on Monday night. Yeah a $6,000 fine will definitely deter violations "likely to cause death or serious harm to employees." Apparently if he had just stayed in the cab he probably would have lived though. I involuntarily laughed at their choice of accompanying news image: "In case you forgot what mushrooms look like, here's the mugshot."

$6k fine in OSHA Land's huge. That's their "fix it before someone dies" penalty. Repeated/willful fines go up dramatically past that, though. They raised it to like 13k in August. What I'm saying here is OSHA lacks teeth.

People don't make logical, rational decisions when there's only a split second to react. This is exactly the reason for forklift seat belts. It's not to protect the rider in case of a collision, most of them don't move fast enough for that to be a real concern. It's to keep people from panicking and jumping out into the path of danger, because in like 99% or accidents involving forklifts (really any kind of heavy equipment), the safest place to be is sitting in the forklift. Whether it's the forklift tipping over, or a whole bunch of boxes falling on it, or crashing into something else, the absolute worst place to be is immediately beside it, and yet most people's first instinct is to jump exactly there.

When I got forklift trained, they gave me online training with several pictures of "this guy tried to get out of the cage as the forklift was tipping/had stuff falling on it. He didn't make it." And all you could see was a 14ft puddle of red across the cement.

The cage won't save you. I had a dude that worked for me whose uncle was killed by tipping a fork truck off the loading dock and was crushed. 8,000 lbs has no forgiveness.

It's fairly common for even minor dental work, it's more about helping people with anxiety than pain.

Nitrous is also pretty cool to do in general so you might as well catch a buzz while the guy drills and fills your cavity.

Dentist nitrous seems to have fallen out of popularity because of drug panic making people scared of becoming druggies by going to the dentist. Its not like novocaine was a recent discovery. With drug liberalization, you're starting to see a lot of dentist offices advertising they'll give you nitrous for whatever procedure you want because who doesn't want to laugh a bit at the dentist.

This is just anecdotal, but growing up I was fine with nitrous, but now in my 30s the dentist tried it on me for free because I was having a bit of a panic - and it made it worse. I felt awful and had to leave and re-schedule. I think that poo poo has different effects depending on age.

Your dentist is The Scarecrow.

Nitrous affects people differently. Some people get as high as a kite and giggly; other people feel like crying or feel unwell. It's in common medical use, especially by ambulance crews, and in emergency and maternity cases, because it's fast-acting, has few contra-indications and is safe for higer-risk patients. Dentists are less likely to use it because several of them killed their patients by forgetting to also pump Oxygen into the mask. It's not a bad way to go compared to some of the deaths in this thread, but a slightly excessive way to treat a cavity.

Yeah I've mostly seen it used for actual oral surgery rather than dentistry, stuff where knocking you out would be overkill but local probably wouldn't cut it. Though considering I appear to have a great resistance to novocaine and I would loving love nitrous to be more commonly available. Ask me about getting several crowns without effective anesthesia.

Doesn't anaesthetic in general have that variable effect? I remember the only time I had general when I woke up I had a bit of a freakout. My old boss had a general and apparently when he woke up he started getting violent so they just knocked his rear end out again.

Hell yeah resistant to anesthesia bros. I always have to tell people to stick me again because the first time never takes. Like when I had to get stitches after slicing off the tip of my thumb. Does proper knife use in the home count as OSHA material?

That's why there are 10 different meds that do the "same" thing, because some people react a certain way to 1, but not the same to another.

Also the line between "knocked out" and "dead" is a lot thinner than most people realize. Remember the time Russian special forces killed over a hundred people in a hostage crisis with knockout gas?

Rental company came out at the end of last week to address an issue with a man-lift. The stop button functions to kill engine power, but you are unable to restart the engine from the basket. This was their solution. My engine stop button is now the ground guy killing it with a key. Refused that one.

Gobbeldygook posted:Was your boss ex-military? It's called "emergence delirium". For a small percentage of patients, mostly middle-aged men with military experience, their immediate reaction to finding themselves disoriented and surrounded by unfamiliar people in a strange room is to start ripping out IV lines and punching people in the face. When this happens they re-sedate the patient and try to bring them out again. The patient usually doesn't remember anything that happened. This happened to my ex-step-brother-in-law when he wrecked his bike. Came out of anesthesia swinging punches and ripping his IVs out. He wasn't ex-military but he did turn out to be an abusive, child beating sack of poo poo.

No, but by all accounts he was a fairly feisty chap back then. What you said pretty much describes what he told me, down to not remembering it himself.
