Have to wonder if it's the base to something lying down in the truck like a shooting target or something. Yes I do have the PVC furniture brainwashing, why do you ask?

Dysgenesis posted:Assuming it is derived from the ATLS (advanced trauma life support) system then it stands for disability confusingly enough. To my recollection ABCDE stands for Airway-Breathing-Circulation-Disability-Exposure, and serves as a mnemonic for what to check for first if someone is injured. I got a little laminated card with that and some other things to remember with the Wilderness First Aid course I took. * Check and clear any airway obstructions. * Check and clear anything that prevents the person from breathing and try to get them breathing again. * Make sure there is blood circulation and that their blood is staying inside the body. Take steps to keep it there. Carry a tourniquet and quick-clot gauze as help may be hours away at best. * Check for cognitive deficits(disability/dementia) -- drugs can cause these as can hitting your head or not getting enough oxygen. One of the signs of altitude sickness is how a person is behaving and whether they appear to be aware of where they are and what they're doing. * Exposure is often difficult in the backcountry because replacement body coverings may not be available, so cutting someone's clothes off is often a bad idea. We were trained more on putting our gloved hands under clothing and palpating surfaces. Gloves are nice because if you put a clean glove in and it comes out bloody that's almost as good as taking the clothing off.

I know I had a bunch of PVC in my old truck to hold fishing rods that was definitely redneck. It was a S10 though and I had a lot of 7’ and 8’ rods that didn’t break down so instead of paying a bunch of money for a real rod holder I made something out of plywood, PVC, a bit of pool noddle, bungee cords, and some bricks to give it weight and keep it in the bed.

Danger: is there any danger in assessing the person. Downed power lines, leaking fuel, dangerous animal still present Response: is the person conscious and can talk to you. No point in trying to clear an airway on someone still conscious. Send for help: you're probably good at first aid. The people on the other end of the phone are better. Get someone to call them while you do what you can.

I also learned ABCDE: Ass: did they poo poo their pants? If so they died. Butt: check again Check the butt: be 100% sure that they did not crap themselves Dick: do they have a dick? if not are they supposed to? Elp: the h is silent

I just remember an old joke about the quality of our first response care about 20 years back - how they'd follow the ABCDEF without fail. Aw Bugger, cunt's dead. Eggs and French toast?

Had some lovely OSHA at work this week. I was a project we have at a port facility Monday afternoon. The Port had an arc flash incident severely injuring an electrician and their third-party electrical engineer. They didn't provide many details but it sounded like they went in to a cabinet that they thought was de-energized, when it was...not. And nothing out there is low-voltage. They have a dozen buildings, container yard lighting, vehicle entry points, plus the dozen huge loving cranes that pull containers off ships. The EE is a 70+ year old man who has been working out there for years. It sounded like he may have gotten the worst of it since the medevac helo was for him. Both ended up at the regional burn unit. State OSHA was out there for the next several days.

Is there not a huge loving warning light on the front of every cabinet that shows its status? (I was going to say the light draws from the cabinet and only turns off when the cabinet does, but that's not fail-safe. You need the light to turn on when the cabinet turns off.)

This youtube account is all gimmicky crap and poorly thought out stuff for rich people mixed with tools used in industry, with the occasional great idea thrown in. Worth watching because there's no knowing where a video will end up going. This clip shows a "bring Mohammed to the mountain" approach to soldering. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-dw2Z0zGmIk&t=22s Megillah Gorilla fucked around with this message at 10:08 on May 1, 2020 |

I'm the guy who offered to hold the camera ostensibly because it's a sick trick, but really because the company needs some documentation when the drivers inevitably drop the forklift.

Bringing my bag o’ stuff home after an emergency visit to the ICU and finding all my clothes had been reduced to rags was a bit of a shock, despite having been on the first aid side of things in the past and knowing that’s what happens (hell, I still have my blunted scissors for doing it to other people). I mean, next time, maybe just incinerate them for me? It’s less depressing than realizing my Ducktales shirt is a total loss, on top of all the incoming hospital bills

I once responded to a pedestrian struck by a car as an EMT. She was banged up but relatively alright, probably had a broken tib/fib so we start cutting her clothes... only to find she was wearing a full latex bodysuit under them. That was one of the few times I’ve been surprised.
