Podima posted:Yo as a deaf person who uses ASL this was extremely interesting to read about, I had no idea ASL had been adapted into a variant used for mills. Thanks for sharing! I still use the sign for bullshit routinely. Nocheez posted:I wish it were more common. I work in a lot of truss plants and the noise level can be ridiculous between all the hammering, pressing, and sawing going on. So you speak a little MSL? Here's a joke in that vein: A surveyor at his transit waves to his distant helper. The helper is a lady. She waves back. The surveyor says, "points to eye, then lifts knee and touches that, then makes a hammer sign." The helper replies, "points to eye, grabs titty and gives it a shake, stands bowlegged and points to crotch." The surveyor says, "hands and face God as if questioning the fates that have given him such a helper, points angrily to the horizon, makes the finger in fist sex motion, then mimes picking up a suitcase." heh, that one always cracks me up. 110 decibels was not uncommon in some places in that mill. All the workers got yearly hearing evals and we all carried a pocketful of earplugs. There were boxes of earplugs in every office and break room, and at every operator's station. Earmuffs over earplugs was high style, though the effectiveness of that was questioned. I've got high frequency hearing loss in my right ear and am not all about that bass. e: The place I'm working now is one of the safest work environments I've every experienced. I've been there for 3 years and change now, and I have zero stories of gently caress-ups or idiocy there to share. It's the perfect place to be a safety officer type guy. I do have tons of stories from the mill though. Ask and ye shall receive. e 2: I should copy/paste that joke into the pyf joke thread and then ignore the thread for a month. e3: done it dee eight fucked around with this message at 09:09 on Feb 21, 2019 |

This week in workplace health and safety: We once again learn that the First Aid Kits in the workshops are in fact STILL empty when I went to help a bloke with a piece of metal sheeting punched into his leg. Lucky I had the kit that I purchased when I sliced 3 of my fingers on both hands pretty deep a few years ago on some rusty nasty stuff. One super duper anxiety attack that caused some collateral damage (will not blame him at all for the damage, anxiety is a real thing). I won't say what happened because the result is in the news. And to round it all off, a bloke who was obviously not feeling well, gasping and holding chest asked for an ambulance and was denied. I think he is still getting heart tests two days later. Bonus, loudly proclaimed by his manager: "I didn't want the drat Ambos coming here thinking it was a job site related incident" The bloke drove himself 10km through town to the Hospital. Also someone in the EXACT same job I used to have at another company died yesterday in an incident (exact as in that he was probably wearing my cap lamp)

I wish I had fun signs for scuba diving, other than “GIGANTIC loving SHARK RIGHT BEHIND YOU!”. Our main one for a divemaster following a class was sweeping (for rounding up wayward students). We’ve got all sorts of signs for various animals and things that are going wrong (ears, low on/out of air, don’t know where my buddy is, etc). I’m about to start doing scientific diving, which should be a fun intersection of OSHA and dive physics

Am I missing something with this one? This is exactly how the Time Warner guy serviced my cable back at my old residence when it went out. Looks like the ladder is fiberglass, and there look to be some hooks at the top for resting the ladder on the cable. The bottom cables are pretty much all telecom, the higher up cables are the ones that are energized.
