My favorite one is where the guy is holding a 7(?) inch grinder with a broken disc and the piece stuck in the safety glasses is a piece of a 4 inch disc.

Well if it was the wrong size no wonder it broke

A building collapsed in Davenport Iowa over the weekend and the city is rushing to demolish it without performing a thorough search and rescue operation or investigating the collapse itself.

https://twitter.com/Rushthewriter/status/1663577128917401607

The building passed an inspection less than a week ago, so some are theorizing the rush to demolish the building is an effort to conceal evidence of corruption

Please don't forget that I am an extremely racist idiot who also has terrible opinions about the Culture series.

12.6 mSv, even in a half an hour, isn't going to lead to any effects that aren't psychosomatic. US occupational limit for rad workers is 50 mSv/year.

Moreover, what he's describing doesn't make a hell of a lot of sense. He describes that there's a pipe that's ordinarily shielded by a lead pad, and someone previously did some work on that section of pipe and then didn't put the shield back in place, and then he went and put his head/torso near the pipe to do some other work and got dosed. But then he describes them finding actual contamination on his head/torso/helmet. But what? Nuclear material isn't escaping the pipe and spraying over him, he's not being contaminated by pieces of radioactive material, he's just getting hit with radiation escaping from the material in the pipe.

He's at least open to the possibility that his symptoms were nocebo, so that's good, but he didn't have radiation sickness.

There is literally one interesting segment:

He's doing electrical work in a nuclear power plant, next to a pipe carrying radioactive material. The last person to do work on the pipe has removed the lead padding to work on it, and has neglected to replace it. Thus he receives 12.8 miliSieverts to his face and chest before a workplace safety guy yanks him out of there and gets him tested for whether he's melting or not. Apparently he wasn't aware of the "being irradiated"-part because his dosimeter had been dropped and damaged by the last wearer.

I might be misunderstanding something, but it looks like the implication is it passed, but someone went back in and changed it to fail to cover their rear end afterwards?

Nothing to see here, they just updated the report based on recently received information. Seems the building fell down a little, absolutely shouldn’t do that, that’s an automatic fail.

EDIT: nvm, I think I misinterpreted it and you got it right. hosed up either way obviously

No, way worse than that. The implication is that it failed 4 days ago, then somehow magically PASSED a few days later, right before collapse.

First of all, it seems highly unlikely you could get a reinspection performed so quickly. I understand with restaurants you have to wait like a minimum of 90 days before reinspection and I doubt building inspections are much different.

Secondly, assuming a 2nd inspection was performed and a bunch of changes were implemented after the failed inspection that earned them the new passing rating, that’d actually be even worse considering that part of the building just loving collapsed.

I’m gonna go out on a limb and say somebody paid to have it changed to a PASS and nothing was actually done, hence the push to demolish the building and cover it all up.
