Overheard today from the grading person (a super duper fat gently caress that bitches about the temps of the workshop so tries to do all official signing off in a cribhut) to one of our apprentices "You have explained how the task is to be completed including all safety considerations, do you think we really need to see you do it?" Yes, yes you do. This is our official 6th year apprentice cos he fucks up so much and doesn't do his theory.

Literal teenagers in very well used Nomex. Antique fire engines, those two engines they showed were up to date in the mid-1960s. I don't know what the nomex issue is but I'm the chick with long hair down to butt running about. Also lol at their garden hose water pressure.

The Real Amethyst posted:I don't know what the nomex issue is but I'm the chick with long hair down to butt running about. Nomex is intended to keep heat out. There is some swelling it will do to close off any pores in the fabric to keep heat from transferring, along with carbonizing if exposed to direct flame. But like any fabric, it will develop rips and fray over time. Along with the degradation that can happen from heat exposure. Which will allow heat transfer. That heat transfer can boil you to death, so it's a bad thing. So it has to be replaced over time. Seeing someone in very old nomex means they aren't keeping the PPE up to date. The other tools mentioned are pretty basic firefighting tools for wildfires. McLeod invented his tool around 1910, and the Pulaski was adopted in like the 30's. TLDR: They are seriously cheaping out on PPE and going to get someone killed.

If you grew up around Mann Gulch, chances are you spent entire history class units in multiple grades studying the Mann Gulch Fire. Come to think of it, 12 out of 15 smokejumpers dying in a forest fire is pretty solidly OSHA.txt https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mann_Gulch_fire

What it needs is a trapdoor under the glass accompanied by a 1-2 inch drop of the toilet when a switch is flicked, or on a timer.

[quote="The Real Amethyst" post="506180538"] I don't know what the nomex issue is but I'm the chick with long hair down to butt running about. Also lol at their garden hose water pressure. [/quote Nomex is fire-resistant material generally used for Wildland firefighting. It works, definitely keeps the heat down when you're standing near a burning slash pile. It also breathes, so that while wearing it will definitely warm you up, it's not going to suffocate you. But, key words here is that it's fire resistant. It will burn/melt if it's exposed directly to flame, which makes it less than ideal for fighting any kind of structure fire. Turnout gear is made from asbestos, which aside from being ultra-mega cancer, is also some of the most fire resistant material that's widely naturally available. That's why structure firefighters wear it when they're running into burning buildings with chainsaws, fire axes, and sledgehammers, so that suddenly getting blasted by a wave of flame is not an instant death sentence. It's also loving awful to wear because of those same reasons. So, you wear the former to say a grass fire, and the second to a burning home, and any actually funded fire engine will have both available depending upon the call. As other posters have said, these morons are less equipped than any off duty firefighter is and will mostly definitely get someone killed with their collective incompetence. A lack of good PPE also definitely means a lack of training, which is way more deadly imo. Being a firefighter in an actually funded department means you're spending a lot of your time doing endless trainings, and the fact that these loving clowns have no clue about such a wide variety of super important stuff when it comes to firefighting means, guaranteed, some poor soul is gonna die totally meaningless death because of ignorance/stupidity. Basically, America is a shithole.

This is Southern Oregon, there’s a good chance that their reasoning begins and ends with “The goddamn feds can’t tell us how to put out a fire.”

Also nomex doesn't melt. That's why people who might face burning up (pilots in particular) wear it instead of nylon, which does.
