My coworkers and I used to do that, except we put the new guy in the bucket with a hedge trimmer.
One day the company's insurance agent saw us doing this and I got a really nasty call from my boss.

I use wirewheels on my angle grinder for automotive body work & general paint stripping. I wear loose clothing, heavy gloves & a full face shield as they will throw bits of twisted wire everywhere and at extremely high velocity. My outer shirt looks like a pissed-off porcupine after a session.

TL;DR: wirewheels on weed trimmers are a very bad idea.

Well that's why I said thank goodness he had the guard on, that probably blocks most of that anyways. I also use wirewheels for stripping paint/rust prior to welding. But weedwhackers tend to shed bits of stuff everywhere as well, hasn't stopped companies from selling multiple attachments for them

Started OSHA 30 training yesterday, and I don’t know if this is universal, but the teacher was trying to run out the clock. Like he’d dwell on the most inane and useless bits of information.

“So OSHA was created in 1970 and its been operational since 1971. Who can tell me how long it’s been operational? How many years?” He then paused for ten seconds, received an incorrect answer, then entertained a five minute debate on whether it was 50 or 51.

I at least learned where to find an SDS on windex

Monday I had to take me dog to the emergency vet because he poo poo himself and passed out, and while I was pacing around, waiting to hear about his test results and what could be wrong, I started noticing that everything had an NFPA hazard label on it.

Everything.

Even the soap dispenser in the restroom had on to let me know the hazard level of the soap.

SPG-9 works like RPG-7 but at a larger calibre, there is an initial charge that sends the rocket outta the tube and then the rocket engine itself starts after some 20 meters.

It's definitely not a smart idea to fire one from a confined space, but it's nothing compared to a real recoilless rifle like M40 where all of the propellant explodes immediately - that would have been sudden death for the gunner and the camera guy.

Depends. Usually the answer is "what is cheapest and what are we required to do?". I've seen them designed into another structure's foundation (rarely), usually we just backfill over it after we're done with the crane and forget about it because ripping it out would cost money.

E: re tower crane failure, I'm reminded of a French Canadian gentleman who once proudly told our temp structures and construction devices class about how he reuses high strength bolts on crane assemblies instead of using new bolts. This is an issue because high strength bolts may be tensioned beyond their yield point, plastically deforming and reuse can lead to premature failure. I'm still shocked that he felt comfortable telling everyone about such an unsafe act.

I work for one of the big bolt tensioning firms. We've had customers ask for tensioners to tension bolts forty percent past their yield point and when we explain how incredibly dangerous this is they then tell us something like how we don't know what we're talking about and how he's done this for forty years and it's never been a problem.

This seems to be a uniquely American problem though, never seen it from a European customer. May go someway to explaining why all those us bridges keep falling over.

Kinda? I mean, he's old and has cancer, and they couldn't pin down what caused the passing out other than maybe some internal bleeding (I'm starting to thing he had some hemorrhagic gastroenteritis and I missed the blood mixed in his Hershey Squirts over the weekend), but he's bouncing back and I just took him to the regular vet to check his blood count to make sure it's going back up.

Didn't we already do this one? Go back and climb up the elevator shaft to the next floor, turn off power, pick up the rebreather on the way, dive down to the basement and turn on the valve. Alternately turn on your environmental armor and just send it if you have enough power cells to recharge.


For content, I was digging through some work pictures and turned this one up. OSHA doesn't really have much to do with my field work, but there are some fun hazards. Here, an electrofishing raft identical to the one broadside to the camera is pinned on a rock and swamped in a bad way. Everyone was ok, but a generator got swamped and couldn't be fixed. I think we ended up getting the raft unpinned by tying off to the rescue boat and sending it out into the current and just shock loading it. It was kind of a lovely situation and now every time I row through there I get really nervous about that rock. I wasn't the boat operator, but the guy who was had years and years of experience, just made a miscalculation and didn't pull back soon enough.

Were they actually correct?

Has some prankster just got a pile of NFPA hazard stickers and just started slapping them on everything? Because that sounds like a fun but silly thing to do.

Like it's already been said, he's probably been teaching that class for a long time. He's just reading off a script in his head.

There are also fairly strict rules about the class itself. The instructor has to keep detailed records of exactly how long each segment was and what was discussed. After the class, he has to submit those records to the regional OSHA training institute. They can audit his records and determine that he wasn't teaching certain segments for a long enough time. That can result in the suspension of his OSHA 500/501 certification.

And since you mentioned SDSs:
