Can I use the gift card to buy a prybar that doesn't do that? If I need a pry bar, store credit with the company that sells broken prybars doesn't help me.

Hipster_Doofus posted:I don't know what regulatory capture is, but the tone of it reeks of The tendency of a regulatory agency to be captured by the industries it is supposed to be regulating and work for them instead of the public. As just one example, Boeing doing the certification work for the 737 MAX instead of the FAA doing it. For much much more see wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regulatory_capture

It's when you get a president who appoints people to run an agency that regulates the industry that person was just a high level executive or lawyer in.

Regulatory capture is letting the pork industry regulate themselves, to celebrate 100 years of people free sausage.

How do you gently caress up a pry bar? It's a tool so simple that it makes a spoon look like a technical marvel in comparison.

A spoon might work better than that pry bar, with patience. Certainly safer.

Had an OSHA happy ending. Found the electrician contractor, explained the panel situation, electrician says 'don't touch that, give me a second', talks to my boss, goes out and fixes the disconnect that has apparently had not worked correctly since the box was installed[!!!!!], and afterwards I could happily go out and work safely in the dusty hell box. I think if my boss had insisting on me just throwing the switch I would have asked him to put his directions in writing and sign them.RandomPauI posted:If you lose a boss today I hope he was a bad one.

Nuclearmonkee posted:The correct answer is "why the gently caress don't we fix it so you don't have to work around active belts and machinery that lust for your appendages in order to flip the breaker" It's all fixed now though and I'm sure I'll never have someone ask me to do anything OSHA.jpeg again

Shut up Meg posted:How do you gently caress up a pry bar? You need actually pretty good steel for a prybar, since you're going to be putting a lot of leverage on it. If you make it out of chinesium it's just going to shear and throw half a prybar at you. (this is potentially bad since the long piece of steel acts as a spring and stores energy, so it may be throwing it quite hard) In socialist antipodea, any product that is 'not fit for the purpose for which it was sold' entitles the purchaser to a full cash refund (not store credit). That's statutory, not regulatory, and cannot be disclaimed. The Lone Badger fucked around with this message at 14:42 on Sep 28, 2019 |

The idea of a prybar snapping during use should terrify anyone. The amount of energy you could unleash into your face makes me shudder.

Aren't prybar's failure mechanism usually bending instead of snapping? I'm pretty sure I've bent one at one point in my life. My guess is that DeWalt was trying to harden it enough to surpass a certain bend failure point and "oops now its a bomb in your hand instead"

Except the time I did oil and uranium. Presented without comment other than helicopters and international waters/dont trust the bottled water given by crew. Because the water isn't allowed back on shore. Ah when I was in my 20s!  And just to gently caress with the OCD people: Nothing in that photo is level with the horizon.

Shut up Meg posted:Wait, what? You made this? Well, yes. Sorry. I thought it was thread knowledge. Or maybe I'm finally that specific level of drunk to admit to it. I do know I skirted info about filming this sort of poo poo. Guess who in that video had a few too many bottles of wine at the wet mess with us the night before....? EDIT: If it was ANYTHING Anglo, BMA, and a lot more I cant be hosed remembering from 2004 to 2012 I was on the ground filming then edited or produced. Going into PNG I was asked what I was shooting as all out cameras were smuggled in via our clients freight ships to avoid 'performer' tax. Good old mining company accounting, cost them more in my crew time waiting in our hotels and smuggling my camera poo poo, than just saying we are making a video. As ex-army they gave me a pistol as backup. 'Guard Dog Security' - those fuckers don't mess around. The story around the bar first night with owner (VERY bloody) he got jacked and shot way out. Second most dangerous piece of road outside of JoBerg or Detroit. I do have a really serious memory problems so sorry if I have said parts of this before.
