A friend's sister, in highschool, burned her hand bad. She reaches in the oven and grabs the pan, fully grabs it to take it out, with a bare hand. So we ask wtf were you thinking? She said "well I thought it would be fine, it was only 350 degrees." Science classes are pretty drat weak in this part of the world (Texas).

10 more degrees and it would be a circle!

The worst burn I ever got in the kitchen was from a dollop of melted hard candy landing on the back of my thumb.

And then adhering to my skin.

It's a small scar, but it's pretty gnarly looking.

When I was a kid my mom would let me melt candles in the microwave and play with the wax, and one time I burned the holy hell out of my hand so she took me to ride go karts to make me feel better.

Property was their religion
A church for one
I've been following these threads since 2016 and feel like I ought to post in it more considering I see multiple violations on a daily basis. I never really know where to begin though. Like if I tried to explain just what's happened this week, I'd have to go on forever.

I work in aviation fueling. My company operates under the truest form of anarchy. There is no training or policy for supervisors or managers*, they all run operations according to whatever they think is best. Just whatever. Every operation is completely different. We have a particular account - our fueling operation for an airline that is not among the top 3 domestic airlines - that is notorious for equipment abuse and lovely management. The amount of documented abuse of fueling equipment is over 2 orders of magnitude above any other operation, meaning over 100x more breakdowns than any other operation. Those are just the documented cases of more costly damages, the standards for which are favorably different for the most inept operations. And still no one does anything about the regular, daily, unreported damage to equipment. Before the big merger we fired people for not reporting damage, something we looked into very seriously. Now it's never looked into. At all. Like last month a dude downed a $1.3M tanker and it's going to be out for a long time because of the joint sections that were damaged and can no longer be replaced by factory parts without lots of extra work. The tanker was inspected by a tech immediately before being used by a certain operator. The next operator reported he couldn't move the tanker. The failsafes had prevented the airbrakes from being disengaged and the tanker was found to be leaking badly. We have 2 techs that saw the tanker immediately before and after use by a single operator. One tech reported no leaks at all. The other tech reported standing in a puddle of jet fuel spilling from the tanker. The operator was never questioned after a duty manager covered for him. The duty manager wasn't qualified to operate the tanker and his ID isn't on any of the tickets.

I believe I was trying to indulge about one of the incidents that happened this week before going on a very long tangent there. I was so annoyed with something that I actually reported it to our company safety manager, someone who I haven't reported anything to in a very long time - for reasons I'd have to go into separately and at length. Our very special Abuse Operation reported a hose was leaking and they needed maintenance immediately. I ignored the call because I was very far way and also busy polishing up equipment for people who are actually worse in terms of egregious safety violations (another thing I'd have to get into later) but at least they don't break stuff constantly! :emo: As for the people who do like to break things, Abuse Operation sent 10 minutes of increasingly desperate messages about a hose leaking, how they are running out of spill kits, need maintenance ASAP. I head over wondering what could possibly be so wrong that they couldn't just close an isolation valve and clean the spill up.

They had yanked a fitting on a small line partially out, and it was leaking significantly (note: they use that line as a handle so they can grab the pit coupler with one hand and the hose with the other. When I installed handles on the hoses so they wouldn't stress those lines they complained that it made the hose heavier. Every other operation likes those handles. Jesus.) Rather than stop fueling to get a different truck that isn't leaking, they had continued fueling while blowing up maintenance about a burst hose when there was no burst hose. A total lie. If I was already pissed, they left with all the spilled mess for me to deal with after I fixed the truck. I got a 2nd call for the same unit when the guy yanked the other line off in the same fashion. I honestly think he broke the other line because he wanted me to put crimp clamps on both lines and I told him I'm not swapping a $35 fitting for no reason. When he didn't get my Full Professional Service he took action I guess. I only use those crimp clamps for the idiots that abuse equipment. I don't use them anywhere else and it has never been a problem anywhere else. Anywhere else has handles, useful for lifting things in an ergonomic manner without yanking on lines.

And that was the least of 4 major incidents so far this week. A week that is not yet over. But on a personal level it's my #1 because for fucks sake, those assholes. Other incidents include:
-Hot pits and 3 frightening things happening as a result of them. Just in this week.
-Continuing to use unsafe equipment, knowingly (unsafe in ways more dangerous than just leaking)
-Creative ladder substitutes while ignoring a ladder
-Cannot disclose but the ladder thing was pretty funny even if not so serious

*Not a failure of implementation. Policy for managing and supervising just... does not exist.

Eyechat related from a few pages back, but not exactly OSHA.. I suppose people are here for gore though.

I had surgery for strabismus (aka wonky eye) a few years back. The fix involves cutting open the eyeball, detaching the muscles and reattaching them in a different spot so the eye points straight. When you're under general anaesthetic, they can only get the alignment kinda close, so they stitch it in a way that can be adjusted.. So when I woke up, they gave me some numbing eyedrops, told me to look at a small LED in the distance and tugged on the stitches until they had it all lined up properly, it was wild as I could feel my eye moving when they were pulling!

Recovery loving sucked, and I looked like a walking dead zombie for about a week until the eye redness subsided. Anyways, that's my story haha.

This is a feeling I know.

Our safety supervisor is the sort of guy who actively ignores PPE, has defended safety violations(minimum safe distances on forklifts lifting heavy loads 5+ meters in the air, loads often consisting of multiple smaller packages that could acquire incredible air time if they fell/forklift toppled) by arguing that "it'd take too long to do things right," ignores a guy driving a forklift without a license for 2+ years now("they're looking into it!" he told me, two years ago) as well as multiple smaller violations that are slowly but surely grinding employees' bodies down(also insists that wearing PPE is up to the individual and not really something they can enforce. gently caress him they can, threaten them with a firing or a written warning if they don't wear their PPE. Also kind of doesn't care much about actually reporting injuries in a timely manner or "minor" things like people getting electrical shocks from improperly grounded equipment), so I was incredibly surprised when he actually took a safety complaint seriously the other day.

I was at a jobsite a couple years ago installing some equipment when I noticed (as I'm standing on a ~50' tall access platform) that there is a WESP just adjacent/below me and the fluid tank beneath it is overflowing with hot/caustic liquid/foam. Me and the customer's project manager are just kind of standing mouths agape as this stuff just boils over out the top hatch and down the sides of the tank (which itself was about 15' tall and 20' square). I'm telling her she needs to radio in her maintenance crew to do something, and sure enough after about 3 minutes some poor sap saunters over to the tank, starts climbing up the access ladder on the side (seemingly oblivious to the regularly overflowing surge of burning foam spewing out over the side) and once atop grabs a 5gal bucket, scoopes it full of sodium bicarbinate or something similar and just dumps it down into the open hatch at the top (in between surges of foam). The whole thing was ridiculously dangerous and I surmised this must happen a lot because he knew exactly how much time he had to make it up between surges and quench the tank with reagent before he got flushed over with burning foam.
